1971 Ford Pickup--Mild Custom
I had my pickup on here before, but I'm a bit more serious about selling it now... Hate to bore the regulars with a repeat of the ad, but with all the visitors strolling thru CHR thought I might put it up again.... Same ad I put on Craig'slist.... Lots of pics of the build in my gallery here on CHR....
This truck has been rebuilt throughout. It is a built to represent a 1970’s mild custom. Hundreds of hours have been spent welding and filling all the body seams, smoothing out the door jams, fabricating custom pieces and doing detail work. The truck is very driveable and built to be a cruiser, not a show truck that can only be driven on and off the trailer. All the work on the truck has been done by a Hot Rodder with 40+ years of experience as a builder and fabricator, the seat and headliner were done by Gonyo Upholstery, Jim’s work has been on numerous magazine feature cars. This truck started life as an F-250 farm truck and has been converted to F-100 suspension, front disc brakes, and an upgraded engine and drive train.
