Really weird idea?
Hey guys, I was thinking about that guy on the '47 and older board with the COE that never was? I love the COE's and dont have enough money for one. But after I saw that guy, I got the crazy idea to make one out of a regular '56 F100? Then I got the craziest idea to make one out of my panel truck? So you guys who are really good with photoshop and such can you help me out and draw what it might look like?
It's just an idea??

Terry,
It seems like I've seen a COE panel truck on ebay a time or two. I can't recall what year it was. I'll bet someone will come along and post a pic of it though
That guy is doing some amazing work on that 47!!

Ok that was a good weird Idea.
Since you're doing a COE Panel why not make it Mid Engine Kinda like the 47 guy but also like my Buddy with the Blown Big Block Crappy in a VW Bus.
How that for a wierd idea. Need More?

Thanks for posting the pictures! I wasnt sure anything like that existed? Anybody got any pics of a '56 that way?

I think it was temporary, just so he can move it around? He went to alot of work to do it and that may have confused us? I think if he uses a Full Size Chevy Van steering box it will work fine for him?
