I agree about the two tone paint scheme like this. Maybe I am partial since my truck is the same color though. :-X0A6

This was my 88 F-350 stock w/ 235/85/16 AT tires:

which allowed me enough room to clear 315/75/16 (35x13.50x16) tires with no lift:

compared to my friends 96 F150 with 7" suspension lift on 35" ATs i was 1" lower in the rear and about 2 1/2" lower in the front, which a simple AAL would level it out. ya, these old trucks say way high.

My next door neighbor has an 88 F250 with that same exact paint color in an extended cab. The paint has faded but its a good pickup, 351 with an automatic.

I believe I posted before but here is my truck:

In the future I'm thinking about painting it like goodboy's except the bottom black would be done with line-x to protect it from the sand and salt up here in CT. What do you guys think?

Pics of my Nite.
 
These are pictures of my extended cab, 4x4 Nite XLT. It's got 135k miles on it and everything works. Nothing special, I just like it.

Everyone on this forum understands where you're coming from. All these trucks are special to us because we know and appreciate good, solid trucks built Ford Tough. You can't put a price on sentimental value. btw, your truck looks really clean. keep taking care of her like you do.

Nice looking truck man. Is that bumper plastic?

Can you paint over chrome?

That 408 ought to move your truck pretty good!

I'd like to put a roll pan on mine too but decided against it. I really have to stop spending meaningless money on a truck with over 211K miles. :-missingt

Bill, my truck has a 302 with an automatic, 105,000 miles. Really like your truck Bill, but ,then again whats not to like, it's a FORD!!! As far as the roll pan, I like the looks of em, and I never pull anything but I'm sure there will come a day when I wish the bumper was still on it! :)

Pretty sure the Nites came monochrome, so it should have came stell bumper painted in black.
