Ford Drivers!

Couple of the Lake toys!

My helper didn't like his rice!

This is what I was did after helping Scott with the cab flippin.

Am I the only one that likes to sit where I can see my truck?

*highperf4x4* · 05-13-2009, 10:22 PM

Anyway, here's what I came to show!

New panel backer bead
New woodgrain inserts
New armrests
New door handles and window cranks
New glovebox and ashtray woodgrain too!

joe231 · 05-13-2009, 10:23 PM

those panels look nice!!

nice wheels
what did you have to give for them?
you get the caps and all?

*highperf4x4* · 05-13-2009, 10:41 PM

Yuppers. 15x8's, 5 rims, 4 centers, 4 trims for 100.00

*highperf4x4* · 05-13-2009, 10:43 PM

As for the panel woodgrain, I wasn't as happy with it as I wanted to be. Everywhere I checked told me that the original style aluminum inserts had been discontinued so I ordered these from LMC. They're actually plastic and not a perfect fit. However, they still cost 150.00!!!

joe231 · 05-13-2009, 10:43 PM

right on!!

*highperf4x4* · 05-14-2009, 12:48 AM

Hey I found a couple more pics on my phone!!

One was taken at a gas station during the long haul back to Oklahoma with the truck and the other is a pic of the massive drop bumper on the back!

scotts62 · 05-14-2009, 07:40 AM

Cool man lookin good!!

JohnC · 05-14-2009, 07:57 AM

Looks good man! Heck you should have taken a pic of my truck for me when you were at the house getting the wheels. Especially since I haven't gotten around to doing it myself!

Hope your pops likes the wheels.

Yeah I know, you should have let me look inside it too!

jason65 · 05-14-2009, 12:23 PM

Interior is lookin better and better.

JohnC · 05-14-2009, 05:07 PM

You should have said something. It's nothing to look at inside though. No carpet, or headliner, and the seat is just one out of a 88-94 chevy.

No I did not. However, it went in pretty good anyway!

*highperf4x4* · 05-15-2009, 12:30 AM

Yeah, I'm thinking the screws for the dimmer switch are gonna need to grow a little!

*highperf4x4* · 05-15-2009, 12:31 AM

And here's my custom speaker installation!!!!

*highperf4x4* · 05-15-2009, 12:34 AM

So, now it's time to relax with some gooooooood tunes!

I think maybe you're out of my league. I'm not a body man so I don't know how much I could do for ya. I know I'm gonna take a break on mine for a while. The interior is good enough for now, I've dropped about 2500.00 in it the first 2 months I've had it and like I said, I'm not an expert with the paint/body work which is what needs to be done next. So, I might come by and hold a flashlight for ya Scott!
