My 'Special' '41

Didn't realize we had a 'projects' section, so here is my latest one. Our '41 1/2 ton I built for my wife with a cancer awareness theme. She insisted we keep the flathead, so it was re worked from 221 to 239, I installed a 4" drop axle up front, used a C-4 automatic tranny out of a '68 mustang, got a Ford 8" from a '79 Granada, and bounce it with Posie parrallel leafs out back. Rewired to 12 volts using Ron Francis wiring kit. Much, much more....Hope you like:

Very nice truck hope the theme isn't from first hand experience. That Hot Pink really pops against the White

I like the pink on the truck. It really pops out and looks good with the white.
One of our members here in Sask has a 59 in powder blue and hot pink rims and dash work. He wants to sell it. I never thought of the Cancer theme when I see his truck, but will now.

Stunning...

I realize that this is an old thread, but that truck is just beautiful, and I commend your wife for wanting to keep the flathead (and even for knowing what a flathead is).

Thanks for posting,
George
