[2 FN LOW]

Whats going on everybody...The name is Joseph, 23 y/o from Westchester County NY...Ive been using Meguiars products for awhile now and just happened to come to the site and noticed the forum, figured id sign up...I currently have a 1956 Ford F-100 with what you can call a "few mods"...Its Chopped and Channeld, has a 351 Cleveland under the hood with a 3speed cruiseomatic hooked to it, Ford 9inch rear with 4:11 gears, full tilt front end, IFS, Gas tank reloacted to the rear under the bed, frenched antenna, custom leather interior from the bench seat to the door panels to the headliner, lowered of course and its got a few other minor things...Its PPG Lemon Ice Yellow and it has some custom painting here and there, the Ford Stamp on the tailgate is a custom job, along with custom painting under the hood on the firewall to say 1956 Ford F-100 and Ford painted under the gauges in the interior...I can get up some pics if anybody is interested, just say the word...Anyway, just wanted to drop it, see ya around

[2 FN LOW]

pics coming in a lil while, gotta eat some dinner and then ill post some up..

I thought this forum would of been more active though, seeing how theres almost 10,000 members and this is a Meguiars forum which car people are going to visit...Maybe people just dont post much in the intro section..Either way i shall return with some pics.

here we go...

I dont trust some people on the internet so i had to put watermarks on them, ive come across a lot of folks who try to say they have ferraris and such and post pics which they find on the internet to try and pass off as their own...I deff dont want somebody tryin to say they own my truck lol...

quick pics for insurance company, outside my garage


The 351C, engine bay still needs some work..You can kinda see the custom painting on the top of the firewall, it says 1956 Ford F-100



this is a 2 man hood, i have to stop strangers at shows and ask them to give me a hand in opening the hood, they look at me like "What do you mean help you?"..I need to make it so it opens at the push of a button incase im by myself and need to open it..This is not fiberglass either, the panels have been welded to together in certain spots to make 1 piece.


Some pics from a mini photoshoot i did with my truck


The Ford stamp on the tailgate had a somewhat 3D paintjob to it


Talk about small rear windows


4+ Inches chopped


Just a random one from another mini photoshoot to show you the front.


Interior shot, the door panels, bench seat and headliner all have the same style leather pattern..


My taillights at night


Dont be scared, she doesnt bite, she just growles..


Gauge cluster, i also have aftermarket gauges for temp, vaccum and etc in the dash and below the dash, you can somewhat see them in this pic to the right of the steering wheel


The lovely V8 logo


Night shot in my garage...The light you see shinning on the middle of the grille are actually hidden above the grille...You can see them since its a mini light strip but at night it gives off the illusion that they are on the grille, then you go to touch them and they arent there. The pic doesnt really do them justice.


and just a quickie which i was using as a sig on another forum, my truck at a show.


Uneek Visions is my website, it is currently being redesigned so if you visit the URL you will notice that a lot of the pages do not link up yet..

Dont steal my pics leechers lol...Theres a lot of people out there who know this truck as being mine and i have a lot to prove it, so dont make an attempt haha...

If you need to contact me for any reason my email is 2fnlow@gmail.com, just enter something in the subject filed which will catch my attention, caps would be best.

Welcome to Meguiar's Online!

I don't think anyone here is going to try to steal your pictures, especially with all the watermarks all over the place. Here's some pictures of a Ford F150 I buffed out they can steal if they want Ford F150 pictures...

TrufflePig, reading is your friend, try it sometime...

You will notice the part where i said LEECHERS...Maybe youve heard of them before...?? Yea well, im sure there are plenty of people who view this forum who are not regular members who post here all the time...correct? Yea so next time you should try reading my post and youll notice that i was making that statement to the leechers...Photos of my truck have been stolen before, which is why i post watermarks on all my pics and let people know that they shouldnt even make an attempt cause they will be caught sooner or later, like they have been before...

So i wasnt calling any of the members out, i was calling the "leechers" out. Dont take my statements the wrong way if your not able to understand them.

[2 FN LOW]

Thanks for the links Mike, ive noticed some of them already when i was browsing the forum, a lot of useful info right there..

By the way, no disrespect TrufflePig :wub: I just cant stand when people cant take the time to read something which is right there infront of them...

Are there any other members here who are located in NY or around NY in like NJ, PA, CT or whatever?
