Custom Classic Trucks, moron alert!

There's some poor idiot that logged onto CCT's forums inquiring how to graft an '89 Dodge truck to the front of his '66 Ford F-100 shortbed Styleside.

Of course with a '68 F-100 identified as a '56 F-100 in CCT's features section, I guess the guy went to the right place.

... Where do they come from?

does this mean you ain't gonna tell me how to do that?

john gilbert · Post by **john gilbert** » May 4, 2010, 11:10 am

Nope sorry I don't have the time, but I'll point you in the right direction.
First buy a welder, any old arc welder will do, and then go talk to the helpful folks at Home Depot.

I suggest the plumbing aisles for locating galvanized pipe to use for crossmembers and perhaps even one of those cool rollbars with the driving lights on top ... And of course don't forget to go to Pep Boys and buy some of those really neat Dodge stickers to put on the sides of the hood, so folks will have at least some kind of warning, before they look under the hood and die from a puke attack.

Mudflaps, don't forget some Dodge mudflaps, or better yet find some NOS Fargo flaps on eBay.

Sorry I couldn't be more help, but I have to go figure out how to convert my lawnmower into a ceiling fan.

Wait.
John.
I like the ceiling fan idea

Its kind of funny how things go downhill when someone competent leaves a job.
I just hope that dude doesn't log on here.
U@ss

Of course we can be friends Cletus, you're welcome at my house anytime. — just watch out for your head on the ceiling fan.

On the other hand, maybe he just grossly misunderstood the concept of a Dakota-based cross member IFS install ':lol:'

The "guy" is named Amanda, apparently.

I read the post and it's not really clear to me what the poster is trying to accomplish. It says "everything", so maybe it's just an unenlightened soul who doesn't fully understand exactly what's involved in restoring an old truck.

Yeah, as it turns out the young feller named Amanda with the queer ideas is actually a girl. In this day and age of sexual equality I'm sure she wouldn't want to be treated any different than a young man, so I'll stick to my original description as her being an idiot.

I did get back onto CCT's forums and edit my original post where I just totally lost it and snapped. As a magazine editor I was bombarded with this kind of weird nonsense everyday. After drinking 14 cups of Costco's finest Columbian coffee this morning I really wasn't in a good frame of mind. My new post as I did so many times in the past for poor confused souls such as our young female friend who just reached the age of consent was to guide her to www.fordtruk.com where I know you people will be more tolerant.

I think I'll back off the coffee, and stay off the Internet for a while.

So easy, even a caveman could do it.

Dog Trot A boggy part of the county where only the dogs knew where to find solid ground and were light enough to trot across.

I've seen one done like that....scary as hell when you top a hill and see the front of a car in your lane.

Hey, I wonder if anybody has ever welded 2 rear sections together?
