    Graduate (Mostly) '35 Truck F5R1000039TR !!

    Please graduate (less final body work and paint) my '35 Truck build. Some key features:
    • Stacks! - dual exhaust system with cut-outs for undercarrage or stacks
    • Blueprint 306 with Holley Sniper EFI
    • Electric power brake assist
    • Power steering
    • Tremec TKO600
    • Wood bed with removable panels for access
    • Tow hitch
    • Extended cab 3.5"
    • Bike front fenders and modified rear

    I just sold it to Steve M out in SD. He's going to finish it up while I go onto my next build - an MK5! It will be my 5th Factory Five build - just love building these things!

    Nice, enjoy that build. Can you do me a favor? It looks like you may have the same accessory drive as I do, or at least one very similar.

    Can you take a picture of the passenger side of your accessory drive......Was there interference with the diagonal frame member? Please see my picture below.

    Man!! those pipes are so great. I can't believe how much it sets off the build. If I ever build a truck I am shamelessly going to do the same thing.

    Thanks for the pictures. I've been thinking about creating a storage box in the dead space above gas tank on the drivers side, so it's great to see how you executed that idea (size, access, etc.)

    hi

    Your bed solution is the answer for What I have been searching. The wood surface looks quite thin and glued to the stainless steel panel. Did you have to shorten the with of the SS panel.

    Thank you
