ok I am lost I don't have a bench seat in my super-cab just two little things that fold up and look like stadium seats

 

Those Were an Option.

First Year For Super-Cab's was '74.

 

Today I took mine to the dump!

Well, I had to take a lot of stuff including about 8 bags of yard waste. Got to the place and the lady at the scales asked, "Is this four wheel drive?" My 75 F250? Of course!

She said that because of the rain last night (four inches) it was too muddy for anything else to go up the big mountain of trash we call the landfill (it just keeps getting higher and looks like a big mesa in the middle of the plains).

Wasn't real muddy but it wasn't pretty, either. Nice to have a truck.

 

mountain of trash?? sounds interesteing.

 

Got my ride off of the jackstands!!! Pushed her out front and filled the radiator. Installed an antanna (didn't have one before). Now I am just waiting for parts. I have ss fuel line, 5 gauges, and weatherstrip in the mail. Can't wait to drive it. I will take finally take pictures and post them tomorrow.

 

Just made an offer on a house that will require lots of work before I move my family in to it.

What does this have to do with this thread?

I have been saving up money to buy a 6" lift kit for my 79 F350 4X4. I really wanted to do this the old fashioned way instead of just using the credit cards. I wanted to save money and pay cash for it just as I did when I was in my 20's with my first Dent. It makes me appreciate the work I put into my truck much more. I'm only $200 away from my goal so I think I will place my order in by the end of this week.

I have around a month or so to get the lift kit project done if our house deal goes through. After that I'll be busy using my truck to go to Home Depot quite a bit I hope.

Oh! I almost forgot, I cleaned the dash pad, visors and headliner today. Last weekend I replaced my rear window with a tinted glass slider.

Here's a pic before the lift kit install. (And before the tinted glass.)

 

Went junkin with my son. Got new door lamb switches, picked up my new/old radio (an am/fm philco) new set of finger cups, & parts for the visors, and a gas cap.

Put in an order for a fanshroud, a few interior parts, and a horn pad.

 

Ha! Took mine to the dump today too, then I almost got into an accident with some JackWagon who didn't know how to use a blinker or look over his shoulder! AND we are in the process of replacing the horn, I KNEW this would happen when I had NO horn

 

Thank YOU ... I so Have to show my Dad this We are SOOO very much at a loss because the seat belts we have in the back of my truck are for a bench but the seats I have are those two little sides ones, needless to say making the seat belts useless...Either way I am replacing the seat and the belts

 

I was tired of tuning the radio every time I started the truck cuz the memory wire wasn't connected. Plus it would sometimes cut out cuz the power wire was loose. Bad PO! ...Thus, I re-did the POs' birdnested, cobbled, and hacked wiring for the AM/FM cassette.

All is good for now. Ahhhhhhhhh.

 

contamplaited the meaning of life, stared at my truck and wondered why??

other than that all i did was degrease the 390 and change the 4x4 oil pan out for a 2wd pan..

 

in the past week or so. sanded down five surfaces rust spots and primored them, yesterday i got the bedrails and tailgatge cover off, tomorrow after school im gonna pull the bedliner out, clean it good, and take care of any rust spots before putting it back in.

 

Rolled my truck out of the garage today and took the first pictures of it.

 

nice truck "jetfxr74" any more pics..

 

Thank you! 79 Guy--Here are a couple more. It has a long way to go before she is any kind of show truck, but I like her.
