Thanks! It's my daily driver, so the lowered stance is beneficial.

Rims are 8x15 and 10x15. Tires are 235/70/15 and 275/60/15.

 

My junk with new wheels and tires:

 

I appreciate the kind words. The grill is perfect in every way, as it is a fresh refurbished 69 Ranger grill. There are no dents/scratches as you state. After looking at the picture, I would have to guess that it is the way the light is reflecting, as I would 100% agree...it looks very dented along the top. But, I can assure you, it is perfect as I spent a good deal of money having it restored/polished. I have the original 67' grill that came on the truck, that is also in excellent condition. I am having a custom Ranger emblem that will be put center on grill, and that is the only reason I wanted a 68-69 grill on this truck.

In regards to the door locks, I'm not certain what you are referring to..as the truck is indeed a 67...and there are no door locks installed on the truck in these pictures, because I hadn't installed anything yet. however, when I google image search 1967 f100...every picture on the face of the planet shows door locks on the 67' doors.

The hood emblems are 67' factory, with the red inserts media blasted out, and polished. I also specifically sought out, and different year model tailgate, because I didn't care for the aesthetics of the 67' tailgate.

Most of these pictures I've posted over the past few months, the truck is shown at about 70% complete. The hood/fenders/doors.....entire front end were literally just set on the front end to snap a few pics. (As you can see....nothing lines up, and actually isn't even bolted on) I still have all brand new trim to install. (skinny trim on bump) to put on the entire truck.

I appreciate everyone's opinion, but being factory correct is the last thing that I care about. The current drivetrain going into the truck is an 03/04' Cobra 4.6 (4V Supercharged) with t56 tranny. So, there's something else everyone can disagree with. Luckily I am building this truck for myself, and not to the satisfaction of others.

 

Not meaning to be 100% original With My comment. In my opinion, the original ranger tailgate emblem would look better with that color combination. Like i said, the truck looks great nevertheless.

 

I wouldn't want you to build a truck for anyone but yourself. I think it does look great. In 1967 there were no visible door lock ***** on the doors. The doors were locked either by key or pushing the door handle from the inside then sliding out the passenger side.
The reflection on the top of grille does give the impression of a damaged grille. That's what I was commenting on.
What is the emblem going to look like that is being put on the 68/69 grille?
As for the tail gate, I didn't comment on that.
The 67 trucks have a few different characteristics that are 67 only. Door lock ***** not on doors, rear view mirror, Radio. Hood badges without reflector's. to name a few.
Nice looking truck, by the way.

 

 

Mustang II suspension in front with 2 in dropped spindles. Axle flip AND hanger flip in the rear. its at about 9.5 inches from the ground at the rocker just behind the front wheel well. I'm sure with a fully dressed truck it will drop another 1/2 to 1 inch.

 

Love the truck! What is the back spacing on F&R wheels? Thanks!

 

I've been asked this before, so I took my wheels off to measure. I couldn't tell for 100% surety, but I feel it's 4 1/8" in the rear and 3 7/8" up front.

 

Yeah it's hard to measure with tires mounted. Thanks.

 

What's the silver gizmo that's routed to the master cylinder?

 

Adjustable proportioning valve.

 

And you're in luck, Gentlemen, as this beauty is for sale!

F100 Ranger 68

 

Wheels and tires are next!

 

Wow, I like it a lot!
