Why thank you! It's changed a little since I've taken that pic. (The day I bought it)

In fact I got a little list going of what I've done:
-New fuel pump
-New fuel filters - put one of those in-line clear ones on
-new radiator
-new hermostat
-new upper/Lower rad hoses
-new heater core
-new to me heater control
-bolted down the steering column and seats
-stripped/primed/painted wheels
-new spark plugs/wires/cap/rotor
-tuned her up
-starter solenoid
-voltage regulator
-changed motor/trans/tcase/both diff oils
-flushed the cooling system
-fixed vacuum leaks
-rebuilt the carb
-redid the exhaust (new headpipe and everything else back)
-got some mirrors
-stripped/primed inside of bed

and I still need to:
-get a new MC
-completely redo the rear brakes - I'm talking drums, wheel studs, pads, hardware, wheel cylinders and while I'm back there new rear bearings
-put new front axle shaft U-joints on there and replace those bearings too
-get a new crap-free tank
-find a tailgate
-put on my gauges: tach and 3 gauge cluster of oil pres./temp/volts
-find a new rear bumper
-fix whatever else decides to break

 

very cool!!!
I would love to go muddin' anytime!

 

What kind of event are we talking? When and where? I'd be interested in getting some folks together to do some snow wheeling.

Love your dentside.. bet she'll look great caked in mud!!!

 

Good Morning IL! I keep forgetting to post over here, lol

 

I think most of the IL chapter forgets as well

How's the weather holding up in your neck of the woods?

 

Lol. Its doing pretty good, been in the 40s and fifties the last couple of weeks although that is supposed to change as we recieved some snow last night.

Good Morning to the rest of IL and BS Crew, TGIF!

 

40's and 50's?!? Jeez, I thought 20 was a heat wave today! Prolly got about 6" of snow in the last 3 weeks here!

And dohc_chump, thanks! She definitely does look better in mud (all the colors match then

 

Snow. Snow. Snow. I think I need to move someplace warmer and with less snow.

 

No snow would be more like it.

 

What?! No snow?? Cmon you know you love doing donuts!

 

Snow is like an ex. You miss them when they're gone, but when you run into them again, you remember why things didn't work out.

 

Hahaha oh lord...

 

Hmmm, fifty degree temps? I think winter is playing a cruel practical joke...

 

hello, just joined the forum here...new on here but not new to Ford trucks...the 01 black truck(really miss this one) is one of my former truck before I bought the 06 silver one... I'm in the Fox Lake area and I collect Datsuns as well...the silver truck is my daily driver...and the blue car is my 76 280z custom

 

Welcome to FTE and the Illinois Chapter! You have some very nice looking vehicles. I'm a sucker for Japanese cars as well...


Here's my '87 Nissan Pulsar NX SE with the 1.6L DOHC motor that I sold last year.

I don't own a single import anymore, but I've owned seven 1gA/B Eagle Talons/Mitsu Eclipses, a '88 Nissan Pulsar NX SOHC, a '91 Geo Storm GSi, a '90 Toyota Celica GT-S widebody, and a '01 Honda Accord. I'd like to pick up a Mitsu Starion at some point in my life... oh, er.... Ford trucks rule!
