Such an awesome truck. The interior has so much character! I really like how you tackled the drop bed too. I painted up one of those f-100 bodies just to sell on a CR-01 recently, and it was a nice body to tinker with. Great job on the build, it's a beauty!

Thanks, guys. I love to ride this truck. Here's a new vid with this old blue and the Hilux out on the wintery trails.

Simply F'n fantastic. Great build. It's got soul, character, scale looks and is a one off.

Very nicely done bud. Congratulate yourself with a well earned cold one.

Which leaf springs are you running? Seen you say the odds and ends for the interior came from an axial kit. Where did the rest of the interior come from?

Thanks for the comments, everyone. I love wheeling this truck!
The interior bits are from Axial parts trees, the whole interior kit itself is lexan and is from Axial for their AF100 truck, the old scorpion truck. Fits here very well.
I used Tamiya F350 main leaf springs, no helpers.
Cheers

It's riding season up here in Canada! Bring it on! Not the first of the series, but it's the first this spring with this great old Ford. Enjoy!

Great job, I love classic trucks, especially when it's done right, and that is done right...
