Thanks man.Just turn downs off the headers,might just leave it like that.We live on a big hill in the boonies now so figured I should look the part.

Great build on a budget, the bed looks cool, nicely done 💯🆒

[@therustyroller3049]

Thanks.It actually ended up costing a lot more than I planned on but that's usually how it goes.

[@rustedjunkgarage3316]

That’s normally the way Hot Rod builds go. 🫵🏼💯🆒🇺🇸

Get some 3x1 tubing and make a frame to raise the floor of your bed. That tunnel looks a bit tall.. do your coil overs have 3 inches travel? I have a 56 f100 with a 4 link. Cut a arch out the frame without touching the top side of the C channel and reinforced it with 1/2 inch x2 solid strap. The pumpkin is the only thing hitting the bed floor and I'm as low as you. I also have a 51 f1 waiting for the same treatment.

[@therustyroller3049]

Yeah it probably would've been better doing it that way but that siding was basically free so I threw it on there.Actually I'm not sure how much travel I have with those coil overs.

Couple questions. What front suspension and what oil pan. Ive got a 50 with a M2 front suspension and my oil pan is going to be below the rack and pinion.

[@therustyroller3049]

Got the mk2 kit from speedway that came with the springs and shocks.Think they're speedway brand.Had to get an F body oil pan.
