Re: 61 Ford unibody project
It's almost like, back in '59 or '60, the designers of that body style were thinking, "let's shape it so that it looks killer with the rockers on the ground"

Re: 61 Ford unibody project
Working on trying to score a '64 f100 swb now ... was originally FS @ $2K but he added those foolish mid 90's wheels & now wants $2500.00 ... Won't sell with the skinnies he had prior.

Time is on my side. We shall C.

Re: 61 Ford unibody project
WillieloRidez - that had to hurt letting that uni go. I'm still feeling the pain from mine from three years or so ago!! Wish I had it back too.
