I don't know I think that the FR100 would be pretty sweet to own, it would be pretty cool in my opinion...

Its a nice truck. I wished they would have used a 56 but with the annversity commin up they had to use a 53. they extended the cab 6 in and lenghtned the wheelbase, notice how much further forwards the front wheels set than stock and the rears were moved back with irs is ago getter. I talked to de Ronnie it was his project with the 5.0 cammer crate engine. the bed is shortned 6 in, 5 sp tranny, don't remember about the shifter. wheres the picture of the frame sittin next to it.

Now I see that the truck was just built to show off their new 5.0 crate motor...
I still don't like the whole retro thing, though... =) The PT cruiser makes me sick, and ruined everything else for me.
