Kool Pickups & Kool Bikes


So your Chopper project is down, what are you going to haul your heep "o" parts in? Your kool pickup of course! The snapshot pictured is late '50's / early '60's and features a way kool '41 Ford pickup. The '40 & '41 Ford pickups shared the '39 "Deluxe" passenger car front end. Rarely did Ford or Chevy (are there others?) feature front clips directly from their passenger car line up. Some other manufacturers that did this treatment from time to time was Studebaker, Willys, Hudson, Nash and even Packard did a few. Modern pickups evolved into nothing but dreadfully boring offerings from companies that have production runs lasting a decade or more with no differences other then a "special" decal package.
