1940 Ford Pickup....Finally Done

Finally got her finished. It is pretty much stock except for the addition of front disk brakes, shocks, dual intake with Holley 94's. Once the weather warms up I will get her out and take better pictures.

Reminds me of the expression "lipstick on a pig" but not for the reasons you think. That color is about as lipstick red and you can get and it looks GREAT! Nothing piggy to start with on this truck either.
