Got some new badges for my girl.

So I've been hunting these down ever since I bought my truck, and you'd be impressed how rare they are. I believe they only ever came out on F-250's from 92-97 that had the 7.5L with the Dana 50 (For the 8800 GVWR Max trucks).... Not a common truck, as our diesels generally got badged as xlt lariat, or xl for some reason.

Gonna give the backside a good scrub in the morning, and work on tracking down the 3m auto adhesive tape, and the fishing line/cleaner to remove my emblems. Should look nice when it's all done and on the ole girl.





And a before back picture.... Holy crap was that annoying.


Side note, anyone wants the F-250 XLT emblems they are yours for the price of shipping. I have zero need for them, nor do I really want to make money on them if somebody here wants them for their truck. Just let me know and I'll get photo's of them up, I'd say they are a 9/10 on condition.

One can never have enough knives. There's a third on my desk not in view.
They are between 92-97, will grab a few photo's of my current badges, and a few along the way.

Weather went to utter **** on me, and I kinda lost motivation to pull the badges off. Have got everything I need to do it though.

Photo's of my current badges.




Truck hasn't been washed since like last march, so they look kinda dull, once they get cleaned up they will pop a bit more.

No, sadly no space for one if I did. Town house's BLOW for truck ownership. Always yapping at you that the truck is loud, that it smells bad, that you shouldn't work on it in the parking lot. Goal is country, side of a mountain, dogs, shop for working on things, and a log cabin.

It is nice, especially when playing a game, or something in the evening, able to see the keys if you need too.
I've only ever seen two trucks with them, one was on craigslist while I was hunting for a truck, but it had to much wrong with it for me to purchase it, and one washington truck I saw driving last summer, then these popped up on ebay.

With the **** weather, I got lazy with working on the truck.
Taped the back, nothing special. Just a tip, if your doing this yourself, if they have wider tape, buy it. Saves you a bit of time, and headache.
