ISO Customization Software

I am looking for any advice on the name of a software program for customizing/restoring a 1981 Ford F-250. Any suggestions or advice?

Thanks, Louay

Not sure what the heck you're talking about as an 81 shouldn't have a computer. If you're talking about engine build software, I use Desktop Dyno and have found it quite accurate compared to a dyno.

I think you'd be best off talking to a freelance graphic designer. Someone might be able to hook you up on the cheap.

It's called google, do an image search... Here, refine as necessary. lifted ford truck - Google Search

Pretty pictures are al lgood and well but anyone that draws a picture for you isn't going to address the important issues such as suspension design, method of lift, tire clearance, ride quality, ujoint angle, etc. If you want to do it figure out a plan and do it. Paint is the least of your concerns, anyone can paint a truck how you like it. Lift, tires, suspension, etc. is done based on what your goals are and intended use.

The software that can be used for your purpose is a draw program such as Adobe Illustrator or a photo manipulation program such as Adobe Photoshop or similar. Like Shark Racer said, a graphic designer might be able to provide you with an image you can use.
