I like this, where the bed isn't separate from the cab, in looks. Hell, I've no idea how twist and use might mess up the sheet metal.
This Ford F-100 pickup from 1961 was treated to a no-expense-spared, nut-and-bolt restoration to return it to its original factory specifications. Starting with a rust-free Southwest truck, the body was repainted in the factory two-tone combination of Academy Blue and Corinthian White. All chrome was replated, the trim was polished and a set of Firestone whitewall tires were installed. It’s powered by a 292ci V8 engine, backed by a 3-on-the-tree manual transmission with overdrive. The engine compartment is detailed and period-correct, down to the hose clamps and battery. The underside has been completely cleaned and detailed as well. Inside, the soft surfaces were reupholstered with a factory-correct padded dash, armrest and bench seat. It also is equipped with factory temperature controls, cigarette lighter, AM radio and a white steering wheel with a chrome horn ring.

Anyone else get the feeling that this looks better now then when it left the assembly line?
