I like your idea & what you have decided about Ford crewcab.

I haven't decided anything yet because other projects have taken all my spare time
only opdate to other a-series since last autumn is that I found new aluminum-bed

Your red regular cab is really good work:)

When I see the pictures of your projects, I allmost cant wait starting up mine, which I have been having on the yard for three years now....

I have one extra clutch but it is still mounted on spare engine+trans and I don't know
the condition of it. I think you shoud look from ebay I have seen few clutch packages
there and they are not so expensive.

I changed rear axle from other. Same time did some cleaning and painting
also reconditioned rear leaf springs.
some new fotos--> http://kuvablogi.com/blog/18266/5/1/
