Power Steering Pump. Mustang was electric, Crown Vic rack and pinion

Sold a ton of parts at Ford Carlise this year. So I went to the JLT tent to talk to them about a CAI for this build. Ended up ordering all of this! Great guys to deal with, I gave them the paint code and they matched it perfectly. The gray color is sterling gray that the 13 donor car was. I really like these colors together. I plan on using some sterling gray in the engine compartment and interior also. I highly recommend the guys at JLT if your looking to dress up ur engine bay. Plus they make a great CAI.

This is absolutely amazing, I love everything about it. Great job!

Holy shit... sick ass build!!!!!

Frickin love bullet side ford trucks... and a shorty!

Outstanding work so far... keep it up!

Beautiful build! I can't tell you how much I admire people with the patience, time and talent that can do things like this.

My buddy just got done freshening up a 77' regular cab short bed 4X4 and is just about done with a full build 56' Ford Pickup with complete FR500C race car driveline, suspension and brakes. That thing is sick also!

Please keep updating this thread as your build continues

Just yesterday I told some friends a 68 shortbed Ford was my favorite pickup, and then...this.

Thx man, I can't take credit for a lot of the skilled labor on the build. It's being done at my business with my two mechanics Scott and Lee. These are guys that can do it all, Lee is a great welder and fabricator and Scott is the "engineer " on the project. Scott is also great at electrical. Im the guy with the vision, the bank, the researcher and the grunt! The paint is being done by another buddy in the evenings. It's a true home built project amoung friends! BTW, I hope to have it Ford Carlise next year maybe u can check it out in person!

doing such an amazing job! Keep up the good work!

Awesome build for sure!

Finally got back to working on truck the past month. Painted the intake and complete cam covers sterling gray to match the intake cover and the small cam covers.

Cut down pipes and x pipe to fit. Had to mod crossmember for 3" x pipe.

Ran the fuel lines and SS brake lines

holy shit, good catch on that crank timing gear. I can't imagine how mad you would be getting it all together and starting it and that failing.

Nice 4 link set up too.

Damn. That's going to be a beautiful ride. LOVE IT!

Removed all the paint from rearend cover.

Painter is finishing up cab. Should have all body parts in my garage in a week or so for final paint work.

Wow!! Very good looking project there.

Looks great!
