Pics of the 92 F250 after a cheapo paint job and the 90 F150 after polishing it and putting primer gray where the surface rust was.


The 92 paint was just to see if we liked it.
Ignore the red on the hubs we ran out of black paint so painted them red for now.

I need to get some of those fender flares. I want some painted to match my truck.

 

they are nice but hard to find. The ones on both my 88 F150 and the 92 F250 are lund flares. I paid nothing for all 4 on my 88 F150 and paid $5 for the fronts on the 92 F250. I couldn't get rears as their was none but I didn't care since I was sticking a flatbed on this truck.

I wish I could find some that cheap. They look like they cost a fortune everywhere I've looked.

 

They do cost a fortune new. I was lucky because my buddy just had the ones on my 88 sitting in a shed and he wanted them gone. The ones for our 92 F250 literally just came in on a truck at the scrap yard and I asked and she said $5 so I said heck ya then noticed when I got them home they are lund flares also!
It is funny first I was looking for flares for our 02 F250 but I haven't gotten them yet and I have them for our 92 and 88 which seem like they are hard to find.

My favorite scrap yard closed and I won't be able to hunt down a set there.

 

I just bought this. Haven't even seen it in person yet. Gonna pick it up next week but wanted to share in this thread.

 

Awesome truck man, hope you get it & thx for sharing

Wow, I have a lot of flipping through to do on this thread. Took take me a very long time. Had an 86 f150 a couple years ago and made the mistake of selling it. Just picked up an 88 f150 with a 5.0 and auto today. Needs a few things to get going, but seems to be in good shape. Hopefully it will treat me as well as my 86. Way more electronics.

 

Here are some updated pictures of my ford. Recently, I installed Moog cc824 springs to bring the nose up. And then, I found a very nice used set of Ford 15x7.5 alloys wrapped in 31x10.50r15 tires. Here is the finished product for now. I plan to overhaul the steering system this winter.

 

Installed new drivers mirror, center caps used polishing compound and then waxed the truck.

 

I still need to raise the back up.
