whats about this one?
first, i bought it from a passed collegue and planed to use it for a racers wedge - because the rear fenders were mounted wrong.
but i was not lucky with the idea "as i had" and wanted to build a doublecab with this one. Now you need to know ( :-D ) the 53 Ford kits are really rare i found out and with some real luck, i got one for a acceptable price. A kit in near new condition...that changes my mind for the build.
it is easier to complete taht old one and built the racerswedge from ground off, so i decided to pick up the fenders and rebuild the cargoarea. said and done.
after i wanted to fit the cargo on the frame....remember, the fenders were wrong...the axle was mounted to far in the back...driveshaft also to long...so i rebuild the chassis also.
Bumper were lost, i took them from the new one and finished the Ford.
he has his flews and is not in "perfect" condition. but i like it. F100 are always a good choice 🙂
