Australian '69 F350 - work in progress

[FoMoCo]

Your first pick with the suspended dent cab. It looks like a hillbilly amusment ride for the kids. Can I ride?

[FLATBEDFORD]

Can't wait to see it when its done. That truck sure is llllllloooonnnnnggggg now! Probably give a nice ride on the highway now too.

[FLATBEDFORD]

You should update here. I saw your picture on the other thread.

I was going to post in here after posting in the 'favourite pic of your truck thread' but it was after 2am here and I was falling asleep
I only just got the truck ready to carry cars about 3 weeks ago. still plenty to do (finish toolbox frames, fill in the sides, proper tie-down points etc) but at least i can use it now. Just picked a 302c for it on the weekend, so i can finally replace the 240.. After that's in i think it may be time for some glossy paint.
the car's on backwards in these pics, as that's how i pulled it out from the shed. And yeah I winched it a bit too close to the cab

Lookin good bud. was also awaiting more pics here after seeing it in favs.

Somebody moved your steering wheel over to the other side of the cab!

the stuff i use to clean the seat was a bit slippery, i went around a bend a bit fast, when the body-roll finally went away i found myself on the wrong side of the cab still clutching the steering wheel.. it's stayed there ever since

Where-abouts is 'favs', freakysfords?

[FreakysFords]

sorry. "favorite pictures of your truck or trucks" thread.

[montyF350]

ahh sorry i should have worked that one out.. it's just on 1am here, i had a long night at work, and i have to take my wife to the airport in a few hours.. it's a long day that awaits me

truck looks good, I would like to build something like that one day for moving my cars around. what brand and year is the car on the truck.

[montyF350]

thanks hazelnut, it's a 1973 Australian Ford Falcon

[The400-100]

Awesome project! I love that era of Falcon too. What part of Oz are you in and where is the track you go to? I have a few friends in the hotrod biz in Melbourne...

[The400-100]

Forgot to ask... Did you buy that wrecker from Darryl Kerrigan?

[montyF350]

How's the "little 302" coming along? (That's what most folks here call our 302's)!

Love my SBF's! Also really like your Falcon, we've still got the 71' "Chero" in the family.
