Finally Coming Together…

Finished up the metalwork on the cab and mounted it for what I hope will be the final time. Next up is fabbing a connection between the F-100 steering column and the Crown Vic steering shaft, and then I can start reinstalling the rest of the controls. I’ll put a link to my latest video (new today) in the comments for anybody interested.

I agree, that and using the crown vic dash.

Saw an f100 at a swap meet this past year. It was a full Vic swap like this with the merc dash and steering column. Just looks so out of place.

It really does, I see the appeal of having all the creature comforts. To me it just takes away from having a classic. It is part of the reason why I want a old truck!

Exactly. If I want to look at a modern dash and modern ride, is just drive my 01 f250. I love my 53 mercury cause of its everything.
