Great pics Anthony!
First off, that green white 80-81. I really liked my sawblade wheels, but now that everybody has them, I'm kind of getting sick of them. The more I see them, the less I like them.
As for the 1980 Ranger Lariat, that was just on Ebay a month or so ago. If I recall correctly, it was pretty heavily optioned. That CB setup alone is worth a few hundred if it's complete.

Not my personal picture, but I feel it's worthy to include here. If any of you guys remember, Bigfoot #3 was a bullnose 1982 Lariat. I think Bigfoot #4 was for a short time as well. If you guys look at some of the pictures of the 80's and 90's era Bigfoots before they went to fiberglass bodies, you can still see the Lariat cab emblems, even though the trucks carried 87-91 and 92-96 sheet metal later in their lives.

Afternoon Gerry!
Those are racing row boats, shells I think they call 'em? I'm not up on row boat stuff, but we had a regatta in town over the weekend. Lots of teams came out from all over the country to race down the Rock River. I believe he had two of 'em up on top of the old girl. I got to see a lot of neat trucks over the weekend as well towing huge trailers with these boats on them. Pretty wild stuff.

1982 f150 xlt lariat with a light green interior, would have been a nice looking truck in it's day
1986 f350 xlt crew cab 4x4 diesel, front axle is already gone really rough shape, interior in decent shape, had all options except power windows/locks
