New 69' Prostreet

Had a 67-72 F100 since I was 15, but I now have my dream truck. Thanks Craigslist! I stole this beast....

I guess I can't use the excuse of, "I'm going to the junkyard to look for rust free fenders" anymore... It's rust free, straight as an arrow, and nearly finished.

I've done:
Valve covers
Air cleaner
JDM drop beams
Bed liner
Gearing (4.10s)
Bucket seats
and got rid of the old dark blue window tint

To do:
Convert 351W to 408 Stroker (Needs more horsies)
Find a good set of 31x19.50x15 tubeless radials
crown vic front end
PAINT!!!




(Below) Parked with the old 70'

Thanks man! It's still got the stock leafs, which I thought was weird. But it's a shortened 9 inch. Had a mini spool when I picked it up, but that had to go! Axles are your standard 28 spline. Guy that built it also installed some wheelie bar hangars. Maybe a little extreme for a 4,000 lb truck!

Stock shafts or chromoly? Either way it's a fun setup. I ll need to tub my truck with the rear setup I'll have for it. Don't mind tubbing them if the rest of the truck makes it look good.
