Show 'em current 80-86.....Post pic

Hello all,
It seems all other F150 forums have a pic post. We haven't had one in while. Post a pic of your current 80-86 daily driver or project......I know I'd love to see 'em...Here's mine: 1984 300I 4spd 2wd. I know I couldn't find an 80-86 bed w/o rust......it's off an 89.

Hey, I am posting the link to my album because there isn't one complete pic of the current state of the project so far. There are, however, several pics of different parts of the project.

here is mine. The top picture is the current look. The bottom was before. I still can not figure which looks better. I have the xls trim in it now with painted gauges and painted steering wheel. I pulled the carpet and put in a rubber mat from a newer ford also.

Yeah Hey, you've got one of the funny trucks with the steering column on the wrong side like mine! I like your paint job, did you do the bonnet mod yourself?

Yep, just like the postage stamps with the upside down plane on them, they're the most collectable that way...

Don't look too closely at the paintjob as the guards have walked back onto the doors a bit and will rub if it's parked on anything but a perfectly flat surface. I did the bonnet myself and unfortunately I've just noticed a couple of cracks in it. I used a plastic scoop I got from Summit as a mold and popped out a glass item which I then grafted into the bonnet. I've got an airbox below it to separate out any water that comes in. I've got to wait until I get the gas system hooked up to figure out how to hook it up to the intake. I'll fix it all up when I finally get a shed built to keep it all in.

Just a factory 351C and C6. The heads have been modded to run on gas but apart from that I don't know what's been done as it was all done by the po's. I added the air cleaner and rocker covers as well as a host of other things that can't quite be seen.

Pic from a while ago:
