Built FORD tough.......

Definitely more spectacular than steel version. Regardless both versions are worthless scrap.
Hope this is just news not yours.

For sure I'm not a Ford truck lover but I like the aluminum idea. It would be neat if the Taiwan aftermarket sheetmetal guys would give us the option of pressing out aluminum fenders, hoods and doors for our E-bodies.

No not mine. The only thing left on the cab was the rockers....

Good to know not yours.
Aluminum ebody stampings would be awsome.

On a side note. Many years ago I was at an evening Beach party. There was a Volkswagen club next firepit over. They lit an engine casing on fire. The fire and light was absolutely intense.  It lit the entire beach up for as far as we could see.

Just another bad idea by Ford , just like the frame weakening holes they drilled int he frames around 1980 so all the trucks bent .
Not that it would make a lot of difference , when they burn like that they are a write off steel or alum ,
Maybe the next ones will b e made of magnesium , that would be a show when it burned !!
