Well, close enough. As you will clearly recall, Truck guys wore white socks and shirtsleeves with HD pocket protectors

In Response To: Bob...I have read elsewhere in the modeling interweb that the 2wd chassis were similar (frame and suspension) from '53 (and possibly earlier) through '64, but Ford always made detail improvements over the years, so I would bet they could not be considered identical...TB *NM* ()

Pretty conservative lot, our family knew a few of them through our church.

I'm thinking that slamming a shorty flareside on the Foose '56 Chassis would be the business for a custom. The F-100XL would need the '53 (ish) frame, 9" , '63 Falcon bucket seats , and the 427HR from the Thunderbolt. Can also imagine same as a Canadian Mercury truck, Stroppe persimmon/white/blue...

Got me motivated to get after the unpacking now, we are finally off the dime and making some real progress!
