He has that many cause he likes them that much And no, no Chevy in the group - left to right you're looking at an '80-'86 truck (likely a 2wd F150), a '92-'96 Lightning, a '97-'03 F150, the '92-'96 lifted 4x4 with confederate flag on the back window, a '92-'96 F350 cab-chassis 4x4 dually with what looks like a service body, a '99-'04 F350 4x4 dually with ext cab, and finally another '92-'96 lifted 4x4 truck with very shiny wheels.

I took a retractable light off the inner fender of a 90 Chevy pickup, and wired it up to my factory hood light wires.

I lucked out, a friend was parting out a Chevy, so I grabbed it. Just have to be careful where on the hood u mount it, otherwise it might hit some stuff.

ok this wasn't today, but the other day i changed my tranny fluid. Was not too pretty at all, the swishing i heard in second a few months back definitely did some internal damage the magnet was covered in shavings and metallic gunk from hell. I got a bit on my hood it spread like greasy peanut butter with aluminum-looking sparkles and shavings throughout. Shifts just fine now. I was wondering if a shift fork could be to blame or if i should start hunting for a new tranny..
Also i tinted the rear window 5% cant reverse at night for **** rofl. Next up: more great stuff body work, midship gas tank, rear diff fluid change <hoping to leave cover on and pump it out/in.>. :P

Finished making the new brackets for my fog lights now i just need to wire them up. i got my T-shirt and sticker from here. drove to my friends house to confirm that he has GT40 heads on his parts mustang(now i have to plan a night trip to do some part swapping haha na) then drove home and found that my check engine light was coming on and then going off every few minutes. i have my friends dad bringing a scanner home from work so i can try to run it down and fix it before it blows up. that's about it for today maybe more.

Shoveled our F-350 out, pulled a car out of the snow with the chain, and got suckered into getting my neighbor from work since they have a little car (the one I pulled out!)

How did you paint the dash pad and the panel around the instrument cluster?

Mine is pretty cracked, but I was able to find a complete, uncracked one in the JY. It needs to be cleaned up, and after I saw this post I am thinking about painting it too.

Oh, and I put a new battery in my truck today.
WallyWorld EverStartMAXX, 875 cca, on sale for $67.
Just gotta bring one of my old, rally dead ones back to get the $9 core charge back.
