I think the pie-cut on the 53-56 trucks hood really improves the design and yours looks superb. Keep the photos coming (it's like a fix for us on meds). Great truck.

To All:
Thank you for all the kind words. I'll have Jared read them as well. I'm sure he'll get some motivation from them. I agree we are creating some fantastic memories not just a vehicle. I tried to talk him out of the Mop*r engine, but, I guess the 383 in my '23 Ford Roadster had some effect on his decision.
As was noticed, I have a '36 Ford coupe just waiting for this project to be completed. I hope Jared's truck turns out half as nice as many of your trucks.
Thanks again for great reactions and I'll try to keep you updated.

Nice to see someone else going with a mopar power plant.

When my '56 project gets back underway, it's slated to run a 440, twin turbo, a-833 4 speed, volare subframe and an 8 3/4 rear. I prefer the mopar big blocks to any other's I've built.

Nice build and keep us updated!
