Very interesting photo's indeed! I just thought I would let you guys know that Fig. 7-10 are CLAY models!!! I work at the R&E center in Dearborn so I have seen them many times before! The givaway is the black "windows" truth is that is probably a wood box underneath, with clay spread over it!! And they usually mock up suspension and wheels to make them look as real as possible...

The first thing I thought of was Ford Courier, just bigger. The bed is almost identical to the smaller Courier bed...

The July 68 is TERRIBLE.

Glad they 'got it right' in the end!

In 1969 my dad was in the market for a new pickup. The local International dealer where we had bought some of our tractors and farm equipment let my dad drive his new international pickup hoping dad would buy one.He drove it around for a week.then went and ordered a new 1970 sport custom ford , that ford in the picture you have posted look much like the international he test drove. Did Ford design the International body?

my impression is there was alot of spying going on back then on the designs.

That first one looks like a Chevy C-10 to me. Those taillights look like they came from a '66 El Camino.
