Talking 80's Style FORD Crew Cab Step Side ***Pic Heavy***

Heres a Quick Build thread of my
1980's FORD CREW CAB STEP SIDE

Parts List:
Body Done by "Hoosierdady"
AXIAL "Complete" Frame Set #AX30525
Vanquish Currie Axles, Knuckles & Chubs
GRIPFAB SS V2 Spools
DLUX Knuckle bushings
Vanquish TI 3/16th Links
KYOSHO 90mm custom Velvets shocks "RED CAP MOD"
"SS" Bomb Proof Splatter trans
"SS" 6mm Extended outputs
MIP SCX10 drive shafts with 6mm ball ends
TEKIN Pro4 3300 and RX8
Vanquish 1.9 Wheels
RC4WD 1.9 Boggers



6mm Extended Outputs to handle the power of the Pro4



















Since I've been getting into scalers latley, I'm so hooked
So this rig will be my "work in progress"
At some point I will have a Drop bed, Full interior, Rock Sliders, working lights
& anything else I can do to make her look real

Not sure on the color scheme yet but leaning towards "Black" with red pin stripes

Thanks for looking

Best Regards, Rick

Small Update...............

Found some "FORD" "RED"

Applied 2 coats of primer then sanded it down and applied 1 more



I'm going to go with a Red Base Coat then some kind of Black and Gold accents
Today I started applying the "FORD RED" (2 coats then wet sanded it)



Pictured here with a 3rd coat of "FORD RED" after wet sanding it



After another coat and maybe some light wet sanding I will start on the Black and Gold accents then I will apply 3 to 5 coats of clear


Thanks for looking

Regards Rick

Great job on the paint Rick, it looks great so far. This is going to be a real show piece once it's done. Can't wait to see it again in person.

I'm not huge on Ford's either....more of a Chevy guy, but this big block 460 crew cab Ford on Curries looks like nut'n but power. By far, one of the best look'n Ford on this site.

I guess you don't call yourself V84x4 for nothing
