Australian 76 F100 4x4
Basically I've got my hands on a 1976 F100 4x4 has a cleveland motor in it, not sure if it's 302 or a 351 as yet, been too caught up on body work and interior.
But, the old girl is getting a coat of black paint, and the grille shell, bullbar, wheels, side steps, rear step and roll bar are getting a hammertone charcoal grey.
Interior is getting sound deadening throughout, and some mass loaded vinyl on all sides too, new black carpet, painted steel section of dash hammertone charcoal grey as well, new dash panels i'm making myself from mdf sealed and painted gloss black, i'm rebuilding the instrument cluster, making new dial faces with uv reactive cardstock and uv reactive paint, with the browning buck emblem watermarked in the background of the outside dials, all lit up from the front rather than the rear with UV led strips with a tinted lens over the top.
I'd like to put a 4" lift in and end up on 37" tyres.
Work in progress and I'd sure love to share my progress with like minded people. I'm sure that what i'm doing won't be everyones cup of tea but From what I've seen there are a lot of people who are happy to lend advice and appreciate other peoples ideas and work.
Thanks for reading my long winded introduction! Sure keen to get to know you all soon.
