1950 f-1
Here's my other project. 1950 F-1 that i've got sitting on a '85 S-10 LB frame.Actually a easy swap. S-10 rear end was too narrow for the '50 bed, so I put a Ford Explorer 8.8 with 3:73 posi under it. Is actually a bolt in swap. Put 3" blocks under it to keep it low. Drivetrain will be a flathead V8 with a C-4 tranny. Hope to get more done once warm weather gets here.

Re: 1950 f-1
Sweet build !
I had two 49's and a 50 I picked up in a trade, There were enough good parts between the three to build a nice one and a so so one. They sat for a couple years cause I didn't have time to work on them, Had a man make me a offer and I let um go. I've kicked myself many times as I see him cruisin around town in one....  Sorry for the story..... Subscribed to this build !
