whtbaron Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 That's actually fairly well done. The ones I saw around here in the late 60's early 70's typically got a sheet of plywood for the cab back. If only Detroit had known that they could sell the Aussie styled Utes here as well. Well....before the Ranchero and El Camino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikewest Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Mike - I hope you like this: I think they are great. The Hudson looks wonderful. Please post a side view shot. In my case the box was made up from ash and irons that were salvaged from a original Franklin sedan body . A nice vehicle was made from a car that was previously damage/altered years ago. I have chrome posts and rails to attach to the top of the box like the period wreckers and service cars had. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
