A good way to dress up an old Ford truck - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

mocwon · 01-21-2004, 04:57 PM

I wonder if these are all NOS Ford parts?

GMCjunkie · 01-21-2004, 05:15 PM

There is a guy that drives around town in some old Pontiac I think, hes got some of the same "stuff" glued ALL over his car...

Whats up with that anyways????

No offense, but it must be a "southern" thing. Make no mistake about it we have our share of "car art" here but it's relegated to mostly paint. I think its because the "3D" stuff makes it hard to clear the snow and ice off

I like the "flames" on that truck but to me the pistol above the side markers and the Great State of Texas on the cowl really put it over the top. Cowboy Up!

It would be a cool truck (even if its a F@rd) if you could scape off all that crap and start over.

There ought to be a law!!!!!!!!!!! About as bad as one with decals all over it!!!

mocwon · 01-21-2004, 07:22 PM

I bet it's still in Mexico. I don't believe the Border Patrol would let that thing cross over.

**Canadian694x4** · 01-21-2004, 07:27 PM

Uhhhh uhhh uhhhhhh, that brings back horrible images of our era of truck that I saw a Picture of that was "dressed" up with all that kinda stuff...

New meaning for TTT..........Tijuana Taco Taxi...........LOL

Porkchop · 01-21-2004, 08:04 PM

That would be a nice truck without all that stuff on it. Its even a short box!! Looks like it's a 67-69. 67-72 was one of the best periods for fords.

bow-tie-bandit · 01-21-2004, 08:27 PM

I like the cards on the door and the 4 aces on the rear. You've got to know when to hold em and know when to fold em. I think they should fold this one.

Blue Beard · 01-21-2004, 10:01 PM

I've seen a few of those in the Pacific Northwest.................

Maybe they'll be deported............

jcueckert13 · 01-21-2004, 10:06 PM

That is a sadthing to do to a nice looking truck.
I agree 100% that the 67 - 72 Ford trucks were the best looking trucks they ever built.
That's a pretty clean one too. I just saw a 50,000 mile all original 67 Ford F-100 in a local junk yard, original paint and not a speck of rust on it. Totalled. Looked like it was in a freeway pile up.

dinnut · 01-22-2004, 01:24 AM

i think i know what direction im going in with my truck now
