Thanks, not really much need to post many pictures till I start getting it back together. It's the same color and it was in really great original shape when I got it so it all kinda looks the same in pictures. Once it starts coming together ill post. I have pretty much everything except bumpers. I plan on a chrome step bumper for the back but I'm between a stock front with a push bar or bumperets, or a pre runner winch bumper from graveyard, without the lights.

In the last 2 days I have installed all new door seals, window weather stripping, wing glass seals, radio antenna, tail and marker lights, cargo light, dome light, cargo light switch, keyed hood release, rear view mirror with map lights, front bumper w/ horns, FORD letters on tailgate, all the badges and emblems, side mirrors, restored gauge cluster w/ 100 mph speedo, grill shell, headlight doors, grill, and converted from round to square headlights. Not a bad weekend but still a ways to go.

As soon as I get the rhino liner sprayed and all the interior back in I will get the A/C back together, get rid of all the smog control and retarded timing set, black out everything underneath and it will be ready for lift and tires.
