Let’s See Those Trucks!

[Docscurlock]

Why is this in the GT350 area? Shouldn’t this be in off-topic?

My truck matches my GT350R. Maybe I should put this in the stingray section.

Hey guys have not visited the forum for several months. During the summer made pretty good progress on the 39' Ford. Thought I'd share some of it with you. Came across the perfect engine for it. Was searching for some time wanting an original patina engine. With any luck hope to have it on the road in the spring. The old truck was an original Coca-Cola delivery truck from Sterling, Colorado. Found in a colorado fence row sitting for decades. Pretty rough & thought it was worthy of a rat build.

That is so badass dude. Tell me that the beer keg is the fuel tank so all my dreams can come true...

50Deep indeed it is a stainless steel old school 15 gallon keg. Below is a pic that I meant to post & forgot of a controller out of a combat fighter jet. By chance if any USAF pilots on the forum here would identify this armament control for me would be nice to know. Planning on using this as starter switch, kill switch & lights for the 39'. TIA

It is from an F-4 Phantom. I'm sure the panels had been upgraded over the years, so not sure what version of the F-4 this was in, but definitely an F-4. At least that's what a friend of my Dad told me...he was an F-4 pilot in Vietnam and called the plane a "Flying Brick". I found these pics on the web.

Rugbyref thanks for the info! Makes sense that it would be from that era. Now I can imagine myself in that cockpit shooting up the bad guys! HA

I flew on an AC 130 Gunship in Viet Nam. We always flew with escorts, 2 F4C’s at 40 thousand ft.

17 F150 3.5 TT EcoBoost, tow rig, much better than my 04 F250 or my 14 E350 both with power strokes.

I think a lot of guys have their Mustang for summer and a truck for winter...I towed my first Mustang (1997) home from an out of state dealer with a previous Silverado. Here's my current version... 420 hp 6.2L V8 with custom phantom gray painted Z71 trim to match the wheels.

Took the Raptor to Lake Tahoe to play. First time going out in the snow. Got stuck and learned how to get unstuck. Ate some yellow snow. Made it back in one piece. Life is good.

Reviving an old thread...

My '95 F250 4x4 7.5L gasser is my more utilitarian vehicle.
