1948 Ford F1, my way

Everybody who builds one says what a great kit the Revellogram '48 Pickemup truck is to build and I have six or seven of them, so I figure now might be the right time to build one.

As has been my wont lately this will be a mild Kustom, no chop, just a few simple body mods, noice paint, cool wheels, tyres and a little surprise under the hood.

So far I think I've figured out why all you glue sniffers like this thing, it's a neat kit that seems to go together well and isn't at all difficult to modify.

So here's where I'm at.



Since I prefer springs to air bags and a more realistic stance, I'm gunna be going for this ride height, rather than the tail dragging first image.



Choosing a colour has had me scratching my head for a couple of days.

I like the stance.

would look good in red

Nice one Carps. I've always liked the old F100. Your ideas sound good to me.

So...............................what 6 cyl are you going to be using?

Looking good so far Carps

I agree a very good kit

That would be giving the game away, suffice to say this will be a mild Kustom Pickemup that you may want to think twice about 'choosing' at the lights, lest you end up

I like where this is headed

Kool, looks like we have ourselves a little F-1 build off matey!! mines coming along, ours will be similar yet way different.

Sounds like fun, where's the pics?

I've decided n the colour, gold base, with the same pearl mica red that's on my daily, sealed with a clearcoat including just a touch of red flake.

nice it reminds me a fair bit of the f100 out of the expendibles.
