I've been looking at a few pages a day in this thread since I got here to FTE a while ago. Not anywhere close to seeing all of the pages yet, but WOW! All these cool looking trucks, some stock, some built, makes me wish I had a lot more money for mods! ;)

After the pages I have seen though, I think once I have my truck running reliably, I'm going to have to learn bodywork so mine can look as good as those I've seen here.

I wish I had the resources to publish printed material, because there are so many on here that would make AWESOME FTE calendars for shop walls!

This thread alone could do several years worth, and the build threads I've seen could do a couple more at least.

I'm impressed !! :-X22

Time to introduce myself I guess, there's a lot of nice trucks here that's for sure! My name's Tanner and I'm picking up my 1992 Flareside 4x4 on Monday after work. My first truck was a 1983 F-100 with the 300... I really wish the new truck had that engine as well, but the 302 is a great one too :) lol, my last truck was a 2001 Crew Cab F-150... I got it on a trade for my 2002 Mustang. That being said, here's some pictures all those trucks:

First truck: Wimbledon white single cab long bed 2wd. I don't have an actual picture, but it was like this one minus the camper...
<table style="width:auto;"><tr><td><a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/bMyAxPoAQiXcAFTnoq1NZA?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-Zy1C71l4a74/TisaRXKnyCI/AAAAAAAAAEg/UqOCGuyA-NQ/s800/old%252520truck.jpg" height="375" width="500" /></a></td></tr><tr><td style="font-family:arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; text-align:right">From <a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/AverageTanner/July23201102?authuser=0&feat=embedwebsite">July 23, 2011</a></td></tr></table>

Last truck, just sold it... before you ask, the jack is underneath it because I took the pictures while in the process of an alignment.

And the truck that I'm picking up on Monday... 302, 5 speed, not sure what size rims/tires/lift, I'll let you know more details on Monday lol. And I assure you, those stickers on the bed will be coming off ASAP!

AND TECHNICALLY my neighbor's f-150 should count for this in that one picture.

Sweet Bronco Man. I love it, looks great! I wouldn't change a thing about it, save for a spare tire cover. I also have an ultra low profile bug guard. I really like those.

That's what I was thinking.

Went on vacation to Northern Va. Pulled the camper on it's maiden run with family.

I'm not going to mess with it much really.

Do you have any good places to shop for a spare tire cover? I would LOVE to get an original with the bronco on it, but cheapest I can find on ebay is $120'ish.

It came with a tire cover with the "Life is good" on it, but it wasn't really my style so I took it off.

I probably will change the tires this winter to something that will do better in the snow, it had brand new highway tires on it when I bought it.

Yeah those tire covers especially the nice ones aren't cheap. There are a couple aftermarket ones one Ebay that look like the original, but I'm not sure how well they are made. They say they are for either 31 10.50 or 32 11.50. Maybe the original ones aren't large enough to fit anything but the stock 235 75 15 tire. I kinda like the ones that just say FORD in smaller letters offset to one side.

She is a BIT dirty at the moment, when I get home from Iraq I will get her all cleaned up, cleaned out and waxed and whatnot, then throw up pictures(I found an old mounting bolt for the in bed spare tire, I intend to put that in, with a lock of course)
