Classic Trucks vs. Custom Classic Trucks editors build-off.

I thought I would mention to everyone that the editors at Classic Trucks and Custom Classic Trucks are going to have a build-off using a 68 and a 72. I know they're not slicks, but there should be some good articles coming that are pertinent to our trucks.

There is also a pretty radical 63 in the new Classic Trucks. It's nice to see some coverage of old Fords.

Yep it is nice. I told Grant Peterson, the one doing the '68, that all they need to do is an all-Ford issue (to compliment the 19,567 all-Chebby issues they have already done) and I would even subscribe to his rag. He told me that ain't gonna happen.

No problem, I am happy to keep my money in my jeans.

Lets hope the biggest travesty off all doesn't happen, and they stick a brand X motor in one of those Bumps.

They can say and do what they want with those chevys but ford always had a better looking and better built truck as far as I am concerned.And it seems like alot of these chevy guys want them. They buy up all are trucks and ruin them with a chevy power plant. Oh well, what can we do.

The 2007 SnapOn calander has a 65 on the "April Specials" page, but the owner apparently put a SBC in it, has fender badges to prove it.Whitewallsd on chrome wagon wheels, too.

I used to subscribe to those rags but as has been stated, I got tired of all the chebbys. The info and pictures on this site is by far the best place for help, ideas, support and occasionally some "healthy trash talking". You guys rule...................Besides I have a hard time believing someone who puts a SBC in a Ford anyway.
