Heres some pics of my 2 wheel drives, 1975 F100 Ranger, 390, currently not running, needs battery and possibly some ignition work. And my 1985 mustang gt, right now all stock, awaiting time for me to drop in my 351w with a 8.8" rear with 3.73 gears. Its nice because I picked up the mustang for 800, and the F100 for 300, just awaiting some tlc.
1978 F250 Lariat
Handed down from my gramps. Brother got it with 17K on it and in mint condition a while back, he got tired of it and I finally got it (with 85K miles on it) for the cost of a new battery and registration. Nothing other than a brake job and a new radiator had been done to it. Oil leaking through the valve covers, oil pan and tranny pan because the bolts were finger tight.

I had a problem with my other post, so I'm posting my truck again.
1977 F100 Flareside with 17,000 original miles. I bought it from original owner. It has many of the stickers still on parts! Original paint! I'm going to work on buffing it out now. Any suggestion on how to procede without wrecking the stripes?

I would try a cleaner wax first and see how that improves the finish. I did that on my 78' thinking it is not going to do anything, I was wrong. I hand rubbed with Mequairs cleaner wax a few times and wow the shine came back.
