I forgot that there were trucks on here...

 

 

Just out of curiosity, do you notice a difference in crushability (if that's a word), between the older cars and the newer ones?

 

YES! Newer cars are easier to crush...thinner sheet metal... more cardboard and
cheaper material.

 

jeezzz.. i have to say it.. for being that old of a truck that thing has so much more personality then the average monster truck with a thin shell.. thats what a monster truck should look like

 

Jwstrand, because of you and your truck I'm goin to eat myself into a Raman Noodle coma now.

 

Mix some frozen stir fry veggies in and heat it up in the microwave..great quick meal!

 

Ok guess it's my turn...

 

Hey everybody, post more pics!!

 

I need to get a lift on my F250. Where does everyone get their lifts from?

 

ss vent window frames? never heard of them. i spent 5 years finding the best parts for my 78. i had mine powder coated, i suppose you could chrome them. i know no one makes them unless they began production in the last 9 months or so

 

I love that truck, but it must ride like a buck board. I would love to see a modern chassis under a body like that. I know that lots of people would balk but the modern monster trucks are so capable and the old body styles are so pretty, that the two should just merge and get it over with! *L*

Nice truck. I would post a pic of my 73 but the only ones I have are of when a 60' tree fell on the hood. If enough people really want to see that I will post the pics but know that it was under the tree for a week before I got home from our nationals and she was also dirty in those pics as well!

Well, actually it rides quite well for what it has for suspension. When I drive it in a show, I have the tires inflated to 6 PSI. I use 35 PSI for street driving.
The truck is bouncy.

I could have made a tubular frame but decided not to.
I like the traditional frame design much better.

 

Nice truck

 

NICE RIG!! i like the fact you're running a d60/d70, i just have to laugh when i see guys running 44's with a d44 up front. It's still streetable and functional as a truck and not just a car crushing cartoon truck for the amusement of drunk rednecks.
