looks good

looks really good:Thumbup:

Here's some newer one's!

Is that all rattle can Gary...or are you having it done somewhere?

That is roll on bed liner! It's a little rough lookin but at least I won't have to worry about scratches! :rocker :drum

cool. Besides you're gonna want to showcase whats under the hood, not whats on the body...

I'm hoping to make it more radical than the other truck I had. Nancy always called it my science experiment gone bad! Well she ain't seen nothing yet! Us hillbillys can really make some engineering marvels! :idea: :uhoh2:

sweet. thanks for the update

I love that body style. I am hoping to biuld and 85 with a 6.9 once I get to my duty station. Yours looks pretty good.

Wont have to worry about rust.

Thanks! I picked that truck up for $200! What a steal for a 4X4 diesel. :cool:

I had a 84 F-150 with the 351 winsor for my first truck, Man do I miss it now. You got a great deal only 200 bucks on a truck that old with the 6.9, and in that good of shape.

Love that truck dude. I really like the wheels you used! I've got a buddy with that body style, and we put 4" miter cut stacks on er!!!!! :evil:

It will have stacks! I think I'll go 6" with the rain caps!

SUPER SEXY!!!

80-86 were without a doubt the best lookin run ford made.

I wouldn't go that far. I think my 05 looks way better and runs better too! :poke: LOL :roflmao:

super-
I'll give you that the '06 is more comfy than the old iron, but I'm not too sure on the looks dept.
It drives me nuts to no end when I am asked if my '92 is a 'choker....:nunu:
I'll agree with you too that the '06 runs better out the box.....but god be with you if you do have to get greasy under the hood.......LOL

No way around it, the older iron is a lot better then these new plastic trucks.

I agree the 80's body style looks a lot better than todays. That is why I did not get me too truck, err I mean Superduty. "I got a superduty", "yeah, me too" But the Powerstroke was no available in the 80's. So I compromised and got a 95. I can not wait ot get a hold of that 85 crew cab we found.

Are you keeping the 6.9 or are you throwing a 5.9 cummins in there?

I don't know yet! The truck is really anemic! 175HP ain't cuttin it! :damnit

Here's what she looks like with a little mud on her.

175hp but the tq it almost double that , nice truck tho, i love my 86 6.9l dually diesel , cant wait to see it when its done:Thumbup:

looks cool:Thumbup: is that herculiner that u roled on there?

Looking good, I bet you cant wait to get it finished.
