This is the only one I snapped of it. Was a nice truck, well built and had a common rail in it. Cannot hate it.

I like that dodge too. Just get rid of those rims and put a working truck's rims on there it'll be good

Yes, I watch pretty much anything they put on youtube. I like the VW van and old Jeep wagon too! Cool stuff, but like you said, no way I can afford it.

Hackster. Over the mounting plates you made for the crown Vic swap. Any chance I could pay you to make me some. I plan on leaving the arms plate at a 45 degree angle.

There is a guy on my local craigslist (Space Coast Florida) that advertises for sale a mounting kit for CV installations in vintage Ford trucks. Dunno if this is the same thing you're after, but thought I'd mention it.

Crown Vic Installation kit for F100 Truck

I have NO connection to this, just passing on info.......

Well after a couple of months of waiting, these sexy bitches showed up at my work yesterday. A couple little issues with packaging from the builder ended up with three wheels not being perfect. Ill work with Jason on that front, not sure what to do.

He did the hidden valve stems on the wheels and although they are super cool just would not work so I picked up some flush mount valve stems to plug the holes and got to work drilling holes in the front lips on my brand new wheels... :cry: Yes you heard that right.

But lots of measuring and prep and they are drilled with some nice clean valve stems in there.

I went out on a limb with the color on these a little bit. I love brown, its such an elegant under utilized color on cars and with the tan/Beige color on the truck with the brown interior I thought it would work well. Jason nailed the color and finish on the wheels they are incredible.
