1967 F100 Prerunner Update:

I know everyone enjoys the boat updates more, but the truck deserves some attention too!

After @nate.mccoy16 temporarily hung the front clip with the new widebody fenders, he was able to fine-tune the panel gaps and body lines to get everything lined up properly. From there, he mocked up the factory grille and front bumper to see how everything would fit and flow with the new widebody kit.

Everything is coming together nicely, and the front end is 95% complete! Next up, is moving to the rear of the truck to get the bed installed, fit the widebody bedside flares, and make the final adjustments to ensure all the body lines and panel gaps match from front to back and she’s off to paint!

1967 F100 Prerunner Update!

@nate.mccoy16 and the crew over at @aandaauto have been making steady progress on my 67 F100 build!

Nate started by applying bedliner to the underside of the cab, then moved on to removing the old, rusted-out factory panels from the pickup bed and fabricated new filler pieces to clean everything up and replace the rotted metal.

With that work completed, the cab was finally mounted back onto the frame! The front clip was mocked up and test fit, including the new widebody fenders and factory hood. First time seeing the wide body on and she’s wide!

The next step will be to mount the bed onto the frame and mocking up the widebody bedsides, along with making the final adjustments to ensure all the body lines and panel gaps line up perfectly.

Once everything is fitted, aligned, and dialed in, we’re off to paint!

Introducing Fat Bottom Girl!

One of the perks of living on an island sometimes a free boat falls into your lap, and you can’t complain about that.

First things first, the motor wouldn’t turn because the old steering cable had seized up after sitting for about a year. After a quick installation with a hydraulic steering system she was good to go. Luckily, the motor itself needed absolutely nothing. Filled up the bucket, turned the key, and she fired right up.

A quick wash inside and out, and Fat Bottom Girl was ready for her first rip.

For now, the plan is to use her as a beater boat and have some fun with it. Eventually, she’ll get the full transformation into FBG 2.0 to match her sister, Flat Bottom Girl.

Flat Bottom Girl gets officially branded with her name thanks to @thesignladynantucket! Couldn’t be happier with how it came out.

If you’re on island and need decals, lettering, or custom graphics, be sure to check them out. They absolutely nailed it!
