Russnomore 27T truck cab? Anybody ever build one?

[Pasthisprime]

The reason I am asking is because I just bought one of those bodies from them. Looking to have it in hand in about three weeks. I ordered a Model A frame from Spiritcars to go with it and plan on fabbing my own bed up. Power is 302 SBF (415hp) and a 6R80 trans with a 3.73 rear gear.

Sounds like a cool project. Pics when available?
Kudos first going with a Ford in a Ford

Thanks so much for putting those photos up. I am STILL waiting on my body. A month has turned into going on three months. I hope it is worth the wait!

Hang in there. Don't let your dream die. My build took 15 years!!! But it finally came together.

I had to laugh at the picture of the black body on the bare frame. Any of us that built a bucket has a picture like that! We think we’re moving along but we’re so far away from completion! And then we sit in it and make pretend engine noises and hold on to the missing steering wheel.
15 years is a long time. Mine took 5.
I love seeing those, in the works, pictures!
Good job, Spanky!
