Sweet Ford

This old Ford is a beauty. The paint is perfect and it has bunches of custom parts. The only problem is the dang thing eats tires like they are going out of style. When this truck came from Ford it had a straight axle front end. Now it has a........wait for it.....pinto front end. Eeewwww (you can quote me on that). Many old custom trucks and cars have had a mustang II front end installed to improve handling. The mustang II front end isn't a very good suspension design either. The Pinto front end is worse. It is lighter duty and the parts are harder to find.

All whining aside we found some parts and put this show piece back on the road to the Auto Rama. Donny did some really nice work here. Just goes to show that the Axle and Wheel can get it done!
