Now Wayne here is that truck

[albumimg]5786[/albumimg]

Here is some of the info since we had about 75 % input on this truck, this truck was a long bed shortened to a short bed,, The cab is off one of our F-750 Fire Trucks but was not a super duty F-750 so same cab,, Many phone calls on where this goes measurements back and forth for where this needs to be since frame was shortened, wood colors, light positioned,, stock 6 cylinder, so much detail went in this truck he said it overwelmed the judges in Charlotte.. This truck is out of Ohio and took these pics at Supernationals

That little red truck was outstanding. I hadn't asked the guy about what all he did, but I know it was a work of art. Of all the trucks at the show this one stood out without having any custom work done to it. If mind you , you don't count mountains of hours having gone into the detail finish work. Ford never built a truck like this. The finish on the frame was most likely better than Ford exterior paint on the originals. And yes those step plates were super sharp. I do have on question for everyone, and maybe I should take time and look it up in the parts manuals, but here goes. On the original step plates, there is a groove on the inside of the outside top, if I remmember correctly. For some reason, I think at one time, I had a rubber strip that mounted into this groove. Any comments ?

Have a great day,
Rich
