Official "Let's see your truck today" thread

I'll start off with the F6 as it waits to be loaded on a trailer and hauled away to a friend.

Not much to look at right now, but here's what it looked like a few weeks ago. Frame repairs are under way at the moment to replace front/front spring hanger mounts and cab mounts, repair rear/front spring hangers, and to clean up a previously repaired frame crack. The 215 OHV 6 cylinder engine is at the machine shop being cleaned up and readied for a rebuild. Chuck Mantiglia did axle and transfer case rebuilds on the ones from my other '52 F-3 M-H so those will go under this truck. Stu

Heres my F-8. I pulled it down to the house finally.

Here it is in the front yard. Sorry for the shadows.

We cut off the homemade headache rack/boom anchor and the remnants of the boom mount. I`ve got an 8x8 flatbed that I`m going to put on it.

They are very solid trucks for their age.

 

[slmann]

those are some pretty cool trucks.

That short wheel base F-8 looks stout....like bull dog stout.....sorry Mack, but it does!

I know, isn`t it cool? The 10.00/20 tires help too. Here`s a view of the back and the hitch I thought I`d leave on. (Hey, someday it`ll pull the mud bogger.)

Notice anything wrong with that inner dual?

Great truck, primetime!

Here's pics of the mighty Merc in all it's present glory. I'm doing a little metal work before final teardown. The left front fender was pretty mushed in the front, but it's taking shape now. Just a couple small rust holes to fix in the corners and she'll be good to go. How do you like my 'old school' interior?

I'm liking the custom seat...much better than an office chair!

Scott, That's a nice collection of Ford material, right there!

I've got 4 days in a row to start moving my stuff around. I'm sure there'll be a photo-op in there somewhere, lol.

 

[havi]

I just realized I never posted my F6 I finally got home, doh! Anyway, I was moving stuff around yesterday, and saw this as a photo-op: Car hauler?

And playing around with instagram:

Your car hauler shot is gorgeous! But there's something about stringed musical instruments and old trucks in the deep woods that scare me.
