Hi, here's my new to me 1982 F150.
Originally it was a 2WD automatic truck from Alberta (no salt) with a 302 and 8.8. The previous owner had it for 7 years, restored and converted it to 4WD with a crappy Rough Country 6" lift and anti-axle wrap bars, 3" body lift, a 351w/Holley 4180C, NP435 and TTB setup on 37" MT/Rs (I haven't figured out what it has for a tcase).
There's almost no rust, the paint is a 50 footer, overall the truck is not perfect...and that's OK, but there are few little things needed to make it better;
Both heater controls are inoperable - feels like no cables
Blower motor vibrates badly and squeals like a pig
Has a leaky windshield seal (or visor....I hate that thing)
It's missing windshield washer jets
The timing / Holley 4180C needs some tuning/attention - it bogs and backfires under load from 0 to 1500 RPM, but flies at 1500+
The lift brackets needs some reinforcement
It's got a slim-line rear bumper....needs a nice original chrome bumper putting back on
Missing ebrake equalizer
Ha yes im 6ft2 and it's a little tall.. it actually wont fit in my 7ft garage door opening, so that's a problem.
I might remove the body lift, who knows.
