have leather 60/40 from a late model cadillac. i`m 5`9in. no extra leg room. extremely comfortable seats and beauriful too. uncle skip has sat in them, if he remembers. he didn`t complain, but if he had, there was plenty of room in the bed, haha.

you should be very proud! doesn`t happen very often

`63 stepsside
`57 straightside

down in lake jackson, tx. one of the black sheep w/brandx motor. my son in san marcos, deerlease near austin. kept straight axle for now. have mustang 2 and camaro clip, down the road maybe. would definitely like to have power steering and disc brakes. kicking around installing bbc next. can`t pleas...

can`t believe my eyes. this looks exactly like my `63 stepside. i picked the color out of color book in auto paint store. was supposed to be some kind of bronze, but i wasn`t even close. however, the truck is appreciated wherever i go.

this is exactly what i did in my `49 international as the original was totally rusted away, but the sides were still solid. another beautiful part was that i was able to adjust the height of the bed floor in order to lower the bed along with the rest of the truck. i`m using the s-10 frame and the re...

i may be sticking my nose where it doesn`t belong, but if you are still looking for a cab, i have a `62 from oklahoma (complete truck), stepside that i would sell for $400. the only bad thing is the steps are rusted thru below the doors. i have replacements, but they would need to be installed. cab ...

i see you`re from tx. me too. don`t even consider sandblasting in tx in the summer, unless small parts. i`m like greg, sandblasting is no problem for these trucks. down here, i use sugar sand (white). it has very little dust, unlike the brown sands that are larger grit size. you can see your work mu...

i have the original out of my `63. looks very good, though i went with a new aluminum radiator. don`t know what yr your truck is. if you want it, i can send you pics and we can work out a deal. let me know.

iceman, i am streetrodding a international kb1, similar to the one in your picture. if i wasn`t computer challenged i`d include a pic. sits on a s-10, lowered frame. have "morphed" a `39 dodge pu grill into it. got to admit, looks very good.

i did that on my `63. one exception, i kept the headers w/sbc attached, tried to sell the 292 for $25 (couldn`t give it away). oh what difference!
go ahead, take your best shots.

what about the steps below the door? are they ok or spoken for? i could use both sides. i`m 50mi south of houston.

please explain the ford power steering/valve system for those of us who don`t know what you are referring to. i would like to put ps on my `63 straight axle if it was cheap. it might delay my installing a whole new front end....jack

this is the front end i have decided to put on my `63. my next project, maybe 12-18mos from now. if you get it going, keep us posted. i`d like to see it. i`m in lake jackson (near you). jack

i had a datsun pu once. ugliest color ever. i called it baby sh#t beige.

i guess mine won`t be too popular, but i`ll tell just in case. off a suzuki samurai. 11gal. fits between frame reails, behind rear axle, has skid plate, filler fits between wood bed and frame, behind pass rear wheel (inside rear fender). i don`t drive it very often, so i always keep fresh gas in it....

can`t remember where i got my mirrors, but they look exactly like the mirror from Rog300b above. they are installed correctly, and the pass side mirror can`t be adjusted where you can use it. i`m pretty sure broncotom told me his mirrors are the same. beware. jack
