Re: pics fron f100 western nationals
Good evening Marcelino!
Thanks so much for taking these excellent photos and posting them here! I had a plan for today that I couldn't re-schedule--otherwise I would have driven down to this event. Next time!
I recognize the gentleman in this photo; he's a FORDification member. Just recently I was looking through some old threads and ran across one showing that chromed steel grille when it was freshly done. I searched for a few minutes but I can't find that thread now!
Thanks again for the outstanding photos Marcelino!

Re: pics fron f100 western nationals
i'm wondering if that first truck is some sort of bump dent kind of mix. the cab and hood look like htey are from a dentside. or something like that. maybe the cab was grafted on from a dentside. you can see the dentside dome light in the cab. what did the dash look like? was it a bumpside dash? or was it customized to hide its original identification? could you tell if the dashhad any seems on top of it liekitwas twopieces or if the defrost ducts were the same as our trucks? i do liek the way he painted the bump with the flames. i dont like the slave chain lookign flames on the tailgate though. everyone uses that.

Re: pics fron f100 western nationals
Marz,
I too will thank you for the pictures, awesome trucks!
But what about the "tease" on the Gray bump in this picture:
That's not your truck is it?

We were talking about his bench seat cause I was trying to get some ideas, he even let me sit in his truck but I didn't want to dirty his nice interior so I had to pass.
