Period Correct Modifications?
Ive got a 1962 F250 4x4 & im looking to do Period Correct Modifications.
What I mean by Period Correct Modifications is that I Hate STOCK appearing trucks I like to add stuff to make it Unique.
So my question is what would you add that looks good on these older trucks.
think of it as if u were like 16-25 and cruising with your friends what would you have added to make your truck Yours?

How about a set of the factory correct Budd #71410, 19.5" x 5.25", pizza cutter wheels with a set of aggressive 8-19.5" bias ply traction treads. If you can find them, that is. Stu

a Diesel truck Hood? fill me in on that ive never seen one.
id love to find a Winch & a mount & i plan to throw one of those badass spotlights on it. Is that even legal though?
I doubt i can find 19.5s & i dont think they would fit any way. Im looking for a set of decent 15 mud tires used. do you know how hard it is to find 15 mud tires cheap that have tread left?
I would like to throw on some Yosemite Sam Mudflaps on. Yes Yosemite Sam i think he a cool as hell character.
Other options im thinking of is Vintage CB & Whips, Blue Dot Tail Lights, Amber Fog/Driving lights & id love to have a Rack of KC lights up top.
any other ideas or suggestions are welcome

Don't forget the big nasty V-8 with those loud twice pipes behind the cab like the big diesel trucks.
And don't forget your Rebel Flag to go on your roll bar!

I Like most of the ideas & i plan to do most of them someday hopefully soon. I really like the idea of the Aircraft lights.

Not aware of any, but I do know the T-98 has provisions to add a PTO. Would be very cool to drive a winch or compressor off it.
