What about stripping it down to bare aluminum ? Could be polished or give it the engine turned treatment like on a Ravens semi trailer

'91 F250 4x4



I just acquired this 1991 F250 4x4, it has a 302 and 5 speed manual transmission. It's in pretty nice shape and everything works including the A/C. I brought a creeper with me and inspected everything underneath, looks like new under there and rust free. Gotta love Southern Trucks.

My vote goes to stripping and polishing it too... You should start a poll on it!

Good looking Bricknose, a set of factory spoke steelies would look great on that truck.

My '91 has just been sitting, since we have hardly gotten any snow. Fuel tanks are still full from October!
