Slick 60's

Sorry if this was posted already. If you saw it, it's OK to just move on.

I've got that magazine at home somewhere. I like most of the ideas the guy did...in fact, he had me until I got to the taillights. Those things are just wrong.

Saw it in person at Carlisle, and talked to the owner. Really, really cool, though I don't like the grille, but I don't think he cares what I think.

I know a guy in PA doing the same thing, a 66' on a lightning frame, it's coming along nicely.

i think i posted these pics before, but who cares. i like looking at them.





this was for sale in southern kansas somewhere.

Yea, I am not diggin' the grill or the taillights too much myself but it is a great truck anyway. I think there will be more of this type truck in the future.

it is the interior i do not care for,looks like a new truck.not that anyone cares.

that's pretty much the full gen 2 lightning interior. dash and all. and i agree with you. i like metal and fabric. no plastic for me.

I'm with you guy's, all i would have done would be the motor and trans. A slick sleeper.

I saw the truck at gg charlotte
While I can apreciate the level of effort and workmanship that went into the construction of the truck.
I did not like the grille or the taillights at all. They do not flow with the natural lines of the Slick and I also do not like the plastic interior.
At the Same Time it is not my truck.
Witch I'm sure there will be people who will not like it either but then again it's my truck built for me by me
everyone is entittled to there opinion.

what year grill is in that red stepside?

will it fit in a 65?

I really like the truck. He is miles ahead with the Lightning suspension. The inbterior is OK with the "pleather". The workmanship is amazing. Many hours invested there. And the idea being not to have a pure Slick. I like my 65 but there is a place for customs too. I thank him for keeping it all Ford.

Awww, but I like callin' the '71 a stepside.

Also duckin' for cover after sayin' the '97-'03 interior is my personal favorite. Gauges on the '97-'98 are simple and clean.



The more rare maroon is my favorite color too.

Gator the grille will fit in any 61-66 but the 65-66 have different mounting tabs and all of them do not line up with the 61-64 holes.if you use a 61-64 upper and lower valance everything can be bolted in with all the holes lining up.
