Seems like they used a 73-87 cab and the front and rear aftermarket parts for an 88-98.

You could have parked it under that ford back there,.. If you wanted oil all over your truck hahaha.

broey · 07-05-2011, 09:40 PM

oh man, the ford would probably have saved me!! they had fire works for the show, and large pieces of the fireworks were falling from the sky all over all the cars! I had to put some embers out that landed like a foot from my truck too.

Not yet, I am still waiting for alt and power steering brackets from ebay, and still a few minor things before she hits the street/strip again. thanks for the complement!
