Do I do it or not?

[X-Runner]

Im really considering selling my other projects for something new. A 1953 F-100 to be exact. Not sure if I want to yet or not but I like the body style of the truck. What do you think IA?

I love the look, just make sure you are prepared for the vastness of the project.

[X-Runner]

Oh Im ready for that. I know there will be lots and lots of replacing rusty metal etc.

Would be a "do things as money allows" type project. It would be hard but I really like this body style truck too so thats why Im not sure :cry:

[Revmaynard]

Imo it's easier to work on something you already have even if you sell it when you're done. lol ;)

cause rust is your enemy

and that truck has it. just hold out till a better looking one comes along.

$100 for that or $1000+ for another rusty truck :thinking: I think you will be hard pressed to find one that isnt rusted for a decent price.

I have this too, its sitting in my yard as well as the Mopar ;)

[Revmaynard]

Buy that and hold onto it. lol You know what I say first! Put a nice stout 440 in yer A body and roll out. :D

[X-Runner]

See above post lol. Highly doubt I will ever do anything with the Barracuda honestly.

[Revmaynard]

:(

[X-Runner]

You buy it and give it the love the classic car deserves :)

[Revmaynard]

Done that once already, not my time to do it again......yet. :D If I made the money to do that car right (body work and such) I would have it. My dad had a 69 numbers matching 440 that would check out, as well as a 65 with a slant six he drove daily for YEARS. Not as desirable to people, but it's something I hold memories with. lol

i say u should do it man, it looks nice when its fixed up, meanwhile, primer it down and get some rims

[redrumracer]

well if you have a muscle car then ditch that rust bucket and work on it. a nicely redone dodge is better than any ford anyday.









well hell thin air is better than ford
chevy ftw :)

if you think you can restore something like that go for it. Those trucks are awesome

It has probably the same amount of rust as the truck...
