Newbie from Texas
Car junky from Texas, Do all my own work currently Have 53 ford f-100 I have to finish, a 1930 model a and other numerous toys, and always lookin for another :D Hopefully picking up a 1956 coe in a couple of weeks.
Lots of good info on the old Coes over here.First pick of the 53 is when my dad built in around 15yrs ago, then a pick of it on the trailer in its current state going to the new house then of my model a project. http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i76/pro53/dsc_013.jpg http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i7...20AM9071-1.jpg http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i7...GEORGE1953.jpg http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i7...604PM41261.jpg http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i7...526PM35581.jpg http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i7...3/GEORGE53.jpg http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i7...1254579376.jpg |

There is a shot of the effie that shows what I would guess to be your friends, perhaps yours as well, trucks out in the street..... not only are they awesome (that lifted chev/gmc is cool) but so is your effie and that model a. I am studying your bed, lots of work there. the sides, did you make them or did you modify the orig metal? I see the rear fenders are un against or very very close to the upper rails, I imagine thats to get more verticle clearance out of the fenders or the bed sides are shorter. I cant really tell. Seems to me if you would raise the rear fenders the front of the rear fender would need to be extended but I cant tell if they have been, the fenders look to be in factory proportions....
I'm building my 53 to lay running board so I was most curious what you did with the bed and rear fenders. Looks great, all of it!!! welcome to the board!!! |
I love your tubular air spring crossmember. That's a work of art. :-X22

Made new flat tubeing running board brackets, so when the truck is down It scrapes the gusseted and tied together running board braces. Then I put the fender where I wanted it.I still have to make some filler pieces to fit between the cab and running boards. Level the bed up some more. The truck is actually sitting in the garage waiting till my model a is done. |
