  1. A top chop looks good on some vehicles…but not on 53-56 F-100s. It makes the truck look longer and destroys the proportions. A good example of a stock vehicle that looks like it was flipped over and slammed on it's roof is the newest Camaro. It has ugly proportions.

  2. A lot of trucks like I had sit a long time because of money and equipment. Your shop has the equipment, shop, manpower and money to get the job done. It takes years for individuals to get enough money and find competent bodymen and mechanics.

  3. 18:05 Pulls up till there is tension on the Scott towel then lifts. Aggressively yanks up on the other towel before any tension and rips the ends off. Yep, he did exactly what the manufacturer of the Scott towels said to do to make their towel look so tough in order to get that sponsorship! I imagine if he lifted the other towel till there was some tension, it would've managed to lift the hub assembly before it tore. Even though the other towel is clearly not as tough as the Scott towel, it was not a fair comparison based on inconsistent test factors.

  4. A very well put together informative video, you guys got it together . I have the exact same truck. It took 20 yrs to finish on my own. I restored several other cars as well. Keep them coming.
