Looks GREAT!
Did you raise the panel bed? In the picture showing your seat brackets there's a difference in height between the Cab & bed???
Yes the bed was raised 3 inches to accomadate the frame swop I did. In all honesty I would never do a frame swop again for all the headaches it brings and it's no cheaper in the long run.
John,I have a pair of those tailights & i was thinking of using them on my 51 f1,i am just not sure how they would look on my truck,what do you think ?

Not sure, I've seen then mounted in a roll pan sideways. The earlier 89-93 were a little bit narrower. Were you thing og mounting in your fenders? Might try and get someone to photoshop for you to see what you think
49 ta 50 Ford and Merc car tail lights was the Bomb in the 50's and 60, and 70's. They still look right to me. But Caddy lights have been used a lot also for sure.
Seats and console have been installed and one door panel. Have to repaint the right side mirror before I can install the other door panel.
Still up in the air trying to decide on rims and if I don't soon make up my mind I might not be able to take it for a spin before the summers over
Man she looks sweet John. But looks is only part of it if ya are building a driver, and not just a "No Go Show Boat". Ya have got a lot of love and care into her. But at this point just throw any thing that holds air on her and get it out in the weather. She will prolly than show ya a few things other than wheels that she want's. Than ya will better know what yer winter projects will be. So many times I have thought they was done and took them out on the road. Not 5 miles later I was making a new list of what else she needed or needed redone. I am sure you have also been there. Really, they are never done. Are they? I guess if and when ya sell them than for sure you are done with her.
All I can say is.....WOW!! You've got a good eye John. Your panel needs to see the road before fall settles in. Put some rubber on her and start your winter list. You've beat her with time and money...it's time you take her out and enjoy her. OH.....I agree....a vid would be really nice for the rest of us to drool on our keyboards with.
