Got alot done today, got the car hauler back apart and dipped in the lake.........finally was able to get it cleaned up and started to get it back togather....... I added to the front cargo box which should house afew more tools etc in.........cut out the ramp deck and added flat sheet stock,And got a few cargo doors cut out........ With the pics are Original 64 falcon hardtop and 65 falcon hardtop (which used to be a convertible) i have this in there for size comparison. just so you get the idea........     |

mike, great looking rig. the only thing that I would have done different is it 2 make it tandem axle. Because thats alot of wieght for a truck like that with only one axle. That what I would think. That's just from my limited knowledge of rigs like that.
