| This is my 1965 Ford.It's 99% rust free.It has a new 302 crate engine and a Volarie front clip that puts it down low.Its what I call a 20/20 truck,it looks great at 20 feet away and it looks great going by at 20 mph.Everyone that sees the truck compliments me on it.It needs paint and interior work,but its still a very presentable cruise night truck and is mechanicly sound and it can be driven anywhere.I drove it from S.E. Iowa to the GoodGuys Nationals in June of '03 for the maiden voyage of the new engine without any problems.Since then I've driven it nearly every day. The next three pictures are of the 1955 Ford panel truck that I recently bought.I have plans to "put it in the dirt",also.I'll use a Volarie front clip on it,too.I plan on putting a 302 crate engine it since the 292 Y-block is getting old and tired.I haven't decided on a paint scheme yet or even what color to paint it,but I've got a ways to go before I need to make that decision.I'm more concerned about getting it ready for driving than I am about painting it at this point. |

| My "new" project,a 55 Ford panel truck. | ||||||||

| Panel is all original except one fender is fiberglass and its been converted to 12 volt.This should be a fun truck to build and cruise in. | ||||||||
| I looked for a panel truck for several years before finding this one in Colorado. | ||||||||
