Ok so before I set this thing on fire, I need a new wiring harness lol what's everybody's opinions on American Autowire?
Not American Autowire but I woudld recommend Centech. That is what I am going with for my supercab. There is a link in HIO silvers's thread in the sticky section.
@Hickory I was only pointing out the Centech harness and that it could be done and what might be needed "So far not too bad. I am not an electrical genius by any means, but between Centech's instructions, my electrical schematics, my shop manuals, and my parts CD I just may be able to pull this off. Going to run everything first, then decide how to wrap and bundle all of the wires." and you came through with the ultimate proof
Bad pic but I snagged this solid rear window out of a 96 today. It's in good shape so it should take tint just fine, plus it doesn't have all that excess chrome.

Thanks Redroad, just wanted to show the mess cleaned up. All is good.
You've made a ton of progress on your truck, must be a good body shop class.
Recognized your door handles from the Facebook group.
Truck is a hodgepodge, noticed you have a newer 77.5-79 column and early 73-77.5 column/dash cover, curious which wiring harness your truck has.
EZWire kits seem to be pretty good and I've seen nice reviews.
It's got a later harness, the cab is actually a 77, built 7 -7-77 which I found pretty neat. I got the column cover from an earlier truck since I didn't like the incomplete look of the dash without. And it was free so why not. It's definitely a hodgepodge though lol 73 F-100 grille/core support, 75 F-250doors and vin, 76 F-350 column cover, 77.5 F-150 cab, 77.5 F-250 frame(not the same as cab), and the front half of the bed floor is the 77.5 F-250, rest is 79 F-150 lol then it's got the 04 F-450 cab lights, 92-96 mirrors, 96 F150 back window, and the 429 I'm getting set to build is from a 73 cop car. Kinda like the Johnny Cash song goes, "one piece at a time..." Lol
When you start getting into the 429 put up the casting numbers and I'll look what crank, rods etc you have.
I need to create a spread sheet in order to catalogue the 20 plus years/vehicles my CCSB has parts out of but it's getting where I want it slowly but surely.

The only markings I really noted so far on it is its a D1VE, I haven't really cleaned it up and looked any further into it

I just had that laying around and threw it on to cover the spot for it lol I plan to eventually do a bumper to get rid of the license plate area. I did a little photoshopping and I'd like to base it off an 08-10 Superduty bumper. I'd really like to do this one and utilize 7" Round LED spot lights
I like the classic look of the round lights, but it feels like too much white
I like the chrome look here but I'm not sure how much modifying the bumper would take so I don't know if I'd mess it up cutting or not. I haven't had a chance to measure a superduty to see.
