Since getting the winning bid at a estate auction on 05/07/2018 and making it a mile to my house where
" MJ " ( Majestyk JR ) overheated and needed a tow it's been a endless quest to get him road worthy

With only 94k actual miles, the original owner (RIP) only drove it a few times a month for the last 10yrs
while keeping it registered and the emissions updated
otherwise he's just sat out baking in the desert sun.

Here is what's accomplished to date, next item to be addressed will be the Factory A/C.

Wow you have done a lot of work on MJ
He looks good

 

 

Thanks for all of the kind words

Besides the A/C, King pins are in the near future they are not that bad but we all know how they
get if left unattended for to long.

I have a Property Management business that caters to Seasonal Visitors so MJ will earn
his keep. Although the original MrMajestyk was an awesome truck that I basically rose from the dead
having P/S & A/C at my age is priceless

 

Well it's been awhile, I did get the front end updated and was able to bring back some of the shine

Sadly though a left knee issue had popped back up and I've got MJ on the block, I do sincerely want to Thank all of the members
not only from the Bullnose forum but the Bumpside forum as well for the years of help and guidance !

I'm not going that far, last week I placed an order for a custom made for me 2020 F-250 so I'll be a few threads away and will still pop in
like I do on the Bumpside thread. It's hard to accept the fact I can not do what I used to but I'll always have an F-Series until I take a dirt nap

 

Beautiful truck.

 

Looks really good guess you drove the hub caps off her
I guess you did not think of putting an auto in MJ did you?

That is a beautiful truck. Sad to see it go. Like Dave said, would an Auto trans be an option?

 

I agree with them on installing a automatic. All the work you’ve put into it and such a nice Bullnose it’d be a shame to let it go.

 

Thanks for the complements everyone

Up until now I had not really thought about a conversion, I've got 12 weeks and if I can't find a good home for MJ
it just might turn into " One of them day's projects "
