Hey Brad, do you have a paint booth or did you paint it in the open in your shop? Looks great!

Brad - that truck is BAD ***, one of the toughest I've ever seen. Love the mud flaps!!! The color scheme is great, I'm partial to two-tone trucks. The lights in the rear bumper, window visor, hood, lots of details on that truck. It all looks like it matches - as in made for that truck. SWEET!

Thanks.

Do me a favor though. Next time you quote someone, edit their post and remove the pics. It make the threads MUCH more enjoyable to read

It has been a WHILE so I figured I would update.

I needed up taking ALL the dually parts off and selling them.

Put new bed skins on my existing bed...
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...-bedsides.html

Then reassembled.

I put asset of Bushwacker Street Flares on and painted them to match. I am still not sold on them 100%. They looked better in my head.

Drivers cab corner was cut out and new one welded in.

Large tow mirrors were done away with and I went with swing-a-ways. I mounted them in the wrong spot and can't open wing windows So that is something else to do.. AGAIN

Had some more pinstripe made to match the OEM stipes


Made some more progress this week and put her to work right away. LOL
Had to haul my buddies 460 puller back home and then pickup my newest purchase.
I am still not sure if I like the flares. I thought I would but......




And I MAY have a problem. LOL

Looks great Brad. I really like the flares. It works well with the wide stance of the tires.

And yes you do have a problem... Where are you gonna put all of the mode when you eventually build all those to your standards? We all know you don't let your fine work sit out in the cold in the winter...

That truck still looks great Brad


And I don't think you can say that you have a problem unless chevy's start taking up room in your yard.

Looks great Brad!
I personally think it looks that much better having the duallys gone. Fix the mirrors and it will look sweet!

I am guessing the gold truck in the corner is the new one.
7.3L powerstroke stick shift maybe?

Wow Brad! Your truck looks phenomenal! I liked it when it was turned into a dually and I like it even better now that you put it back to traditional and ditched the shell! But even beyond all of that, the amount of work and fabrication that you put into it gives me hope for being able to improve my old girl!

Keep up the great work!!

That truck is absolutely gorgeous Brad! Great job! I've got to say though, it looked meaner as a dually.
