Well I'll go first:

My truck is a 1981 Explorer Custom in Dark Caramel Metallic Paint, with Light Orange, Brown and Light Chamois, 1981 Explorer specific stripes.

It has the 300-6, T-18, Ford 9" 2.75:1 rearend combo

"she" needs painting, but it's hard to tell from the pictures...

You can see pictures here...

Hi everyone I have a '81 F150 Explorer Package A 2wd I6 with a 4 speed. It is pretty much a twin to 81-F-150-Explorer's pickup. Check out my gallery for a few photos. I currently starts and runs but can't pass the state emission state test. Hoping to get the time to work on it soon.
