It's almost a real truck! Has power disc brakes, twelve volt, and a S-10 5 speed trans.

Perfect color. The contrast with the wheels is spot on!

What's wrong with it? Nothing that I can see. Some great upgrades if you plan to drive it.

My dad has a '49 F-1. Stock. Could use some more gear and the T-5 give you just that.

Here's a shot of our '51 F-1 gettin' ready for the cruise up to Dawsonville, Georgia for the Moonshine Festival and White Knuckle Tour this weekend. I guess a lot of us like red trucks.
