My granddad had a '55 Ford truck. The bed was gone off of it, and a rickety old wooden flatbed was back there. I learned how to drive in that Ford! (That's where some of the dings came from!)
Some day, I may try a close tribute to that old truck.

I can't right now, I'm busy planning my next move.

Oops forgot to get it out of the box, but you can see some on the custom engine and also still in the box on the upper corner of the first pic!!! My bad!!!! Everything is accounted for except for that one license plate decal which I won't be using anyway... I have tons of license plate decals to substitute!!!

There are so many extra parts in this kit with the original or a work truck and the custom build!!! Even a nice set of tools and acetylene canister torches... I will have lots left over for future builds including that really nice custom v-8...

They are actually patterned after mid-sixties Chevy stepside fenders. The taillights for those fenders are some kinda custom jobs, I think.
