    First of all, I really like all of your videos! While I definitely can’t afford one, I really appreciate that you do these. Secondly, an earlier comment you made in this video, were these trucks are getting harder to find. Is that the same thing for Ford F-1’s of that vintage? Cheers!

    I love all the work that you and your team do Jonathan, but this truck is particularly fabulous. Do you arrange to have photos taken of all completed vehicles (perhaps for the new owners, with the entire build photographed?) like the press media produced by most car companies? It would be amazing to have access to these just to get that bit closer to these trucks and admire the detail. Thank you.

    In The Villages, Fl, there are a couple of "derelict"(nice bodies) Thirftmasters in front two restaurants called Gators.. The trucks, are used as props(not running)..one in Brownwood square, and one Sumter Landing(all in The Villages)..Also, a very nice "derelict"40" ford pickup as a garden display .. Everytime I see them, I think Jonathan Ward should get his hands on them..This, to do his magic and place them back on the road..Maybe, you could persuade the owners to sell, in a package deal?..

    It would be a bit pricey but for ventilation a contoured electric pop-up roof would be a trick bit of kit OR it could be made of contoured glass with the switch to make it opaque. Cost effective no but trick as hell yep!

    Beautiful vehicles you all do! I have a 50 Buick and am very interested in the traditional looking headlights with the led technology. Who makes them? In my research of led lights, all I see are crazy modern looking lights which just will not look right on this car. Also, I want quality, made in the US lights instead of the cheap Chinese Amazon junk. Hope to hear from you. Thanks.

    • @jerryusrey6364
      @jerryusrey6364 3 года назад +1

      I own a 1947 (not Icon Thriftmaster but same body as). I am 6’-0”, 255 lb. I am barely accommodated, and would guess 6’-4”, 270 lb would be cramped & uncomfortable. Problem is legroom, not necessarily headroom. I have seen several with 4” cab extensions which solves problem handily.
