smitty0312 Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 I made this for a co-worker, he owns a 1954 dump pick-up truck, I made this plaque for him as an appreciation gift for helping me get a promotion at work, he calls her "Nettie" after his aunt I guess, made from 1/2 in birch ply, tried to match the paint the best I could, comments all welcome. Thanks Bishop, bobscroll, neptun and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjR Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Very nice cutting! I do think the cutting is great! I do have one little question, though. You cut a Ford and put the IH on the door; why? the Ford is even the right year. Some of the His Could actually have different grills ands still be the same year. IH used parts until they ran to a certain number then switched to the next group. There were some KB series still titled as 1950 units and some of the l series were also titled as 1950 units.
