Well, in the past 2 weeks I've done a lot of work on my 1994 F250 460. Spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor, ingnition coil, oil change, front and rear differential, bled the brake lines with new fluid , replaced a broken washer on the driveline, and adjusted my gear selector. Not too much left to do except get some gas and go pick up my camper from storage and go steelhead fishing!
Ordered timing chain (w/gears), mains and rod bearings, timing cover gaskets, rear main seal, calve springs, valve stem seals, and lifters. Might be missing a thing or two but all for my 88 F150. Next month camshaft and freeze plugs. Getting closer and closer to getting her back together. T-chain, valve springs, steam seals, and lifters all Comp, bearings Sealed Power, and gaskets all Fel-Pro.

Browsing on Craigslist, I bought these clear front parking/turn lenses for my '90. After work, i got them installed and replaced the stock clear bulbs with orange ones. Overall, I like the look of the new lenses as i think it cleans up the front end a bit. I also like that the orange bulbs still make them shine orange when the lighys are on.
^I don't know why (probably because of imports and those ****ty "Altezza" tail lights that were popular right around the time F&F1 came out) but I can't stand clear corners. It makes me think of some trashy mitsubishi eclipse with a giant park bench on the trunk and 10 subwoofers, with about 86 hp and a giant fart pipe sticking out the back... no offence
What if you had amber headlights instead? Its the new ****.
Speaking of 10in sub's lol. I ordered this guy today to finish up the sound on my truck

I'm old school and like OEM lights. That said, clears on the front aren't too bad. I REALLY dislike clear tails, even the OEM ones on some new vehicles. But when it's your truck, do what Ya wanna.
Picked up brass freeze plugs for my 88 and ordered a freeze plug set to replace the missing one on the 95 F250 parts truck to see how it runs. Hoping the 351 runs great.

Just ordered transmission filter for both my 88 and the 90 F150s. Also ordered valve cover gaskets, belt for smog pump delete, and water pump for my 88.
Either next month or the month after will order the cam and I will have pretty much everything to get her running.
Looks like I have a lot of work once the nasty weather goes away. LOL
Crazy that the E4OD trans filter is twice as much as the C6 one. I guess that is the price you pay for OD.

put $25 in the tank of the truck, and started getting snow today (uuug) so used it to flatten out the soft snow and move it around the drive a bit and been letting it run a bit and warm up to melt off the snow...think a move to Nevada or Arizona is in order....
warmed it up again, got 10 more inches of snow again, and made sure it was warm enough to melt the crap off, also started debating if I want to move to a place like Nevada or Arizona...LOL
