Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

It's a 72 but I tend to favor the 71 front end so that's what I'm going with. Frame of restoration. Blasted and painted frame and suspension with a home made ford 9". Still plenty of work to do lol

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

I'm sure those guys at lower level customs got the inside line on some of those custom touches their trophies at the show were cool too/ similar .one of their sponsors was DC customs too they do custom metal work / bead rolling another was Welches chop shop custom metal / CNC plasma work never dealt with any of them yet but the people I met there at the show were cool not sure if dropping their names is cool or not here ,but I can see they are talented for sure I'm sure someone will let me know if not.I'm not affiliated with them.
