Default Ford f150 aka "licorice"

Hi everyone well I seen a vision of this truck so I had to build it . I'm not the best at build threads but hope to get better enjoy

The body I started off by cutting bed off and putting it in primer and bending main rear bar

Then I ran into a problem the original bedsides they were really short so I decided to go a diff route
.


Here's the rear shock setup


Full extension


Full compression


Rear tube work started and light bar guard


Interior cage and front bumper started

Very cool! Really nice tube work, and I like the use of the Tundra bed sides. What interior is that? Also... that Cadillac, build thread?

Wow, just Wow.

Great work.

Are you using parts of an SCX frame with a Wraith skidplate? Got any pics from the side at RTR rideheight? I'm curious as to how the upper links look on the "raised" mounting point on the wraith skid.

It's definitely a good sign when the rear tires tuck even with the top of the bedside!

It looks like the lightbar mostly holds the body on, is that correct?
