68-70 Bumpside

I post in the 48-60 Forum normally but I was going thru my photos from the 09 season. This is a bumpside I saw in Pigeon Forge at Shades of the Past.
It is is sweet..

Thanks for the pic!! That is one sweet looking truck! Looks like it has been smoothed out. No drip rails, no cab seams, no hood seam.
Did you happen to get any info on this beauty?!

I have inner fenders and hinges from a 73-79 on my 70. (It came that way) The 73-79 hinges are on the inner side of the inner fenders as the 67-72 are on the outer side. Not too many people notice at first.

man just seeing all these creampuff trucks makes me want to drool all over the keyboard. i cant wait to start working on my truck. its a matter of getting all my ducks in a row. i got myself another daily driver to use so i can take the f100 off the road, i've budgeted time to do it, now i need to budget money and get a garage to do it in.

That is a nice looking truck but I think the springs are worn out.
