Thread: Eddie's 1952 Ford F-1

thinking about putting my old GP seats in the truck what yous think?

Might as well, can't argue with free parts. Have you test fitted them?

yea they will fit pretty good the old seats are not original and i can easily make some brackets to make these fit good i was thinking about getting 2 passenger side seats, i wanna keep as much electical as i can out of the truck to make everything simple like it was 50 years ago but with a few upgrades

Cool, take some test fit photos and post em' up.

Time for autoX truck.

may as well lock it now.. :P

thanks ! ill keep yous updated im still doing things to my GTP so i havent been working on this as much as i like but i did get the whole charging system working and it runs and drives

they would probably fit in real nice but i think my custom floor shifter might be in the way of the center consol

photobuckets video quailty is not that great but here you go for those of you who want to see!

Sounds healthy and looks pretty decent.

lol restoration for me if i decide to build a rat its gonna be an old 20's rust buck like a Ford tudor model a

here's a better video




scored some new parts today, front grill and lower valance needs to be cleaned up but there is no rot like the other ones have

Very nice so far. So sandblast, primer, and what color?

Yep... definitely needs to be layin frame. You can bag those trucks and get em to tuck a big wheel/tire combo pretty easily. Even a 18/20 combo would look sharp. Mustang II front end, 3 link rear, no inner wheel wells and a bit of fab work. haha. It would look sweet ratted out too with some old skool patina paint on the doors and what not. But then again, your ride, your choice. Judging on how your car is comin, the truck will turn out good too. Keep it up man! I like it!

I like the truck. Should be a fun project
