I'm Awesome
I have started a new build. Both, my 97 rado and the 95 w/t have been sold.
The wifey picked this up to be her truck, then decided she wanted to use the car. So I get the truck and well, I cant leave anything be for longer than rental time. It is a 2000 F-150 Lariat (fully loaded model) 4x4 super cab (ext with suicide doors) flareside short box. It has the 4.6l v8 and a locked 3.55 rearend. We bought it used and that alone caused us a bunch of work.
here is how we got it:
see, just de-ricing the damn thing is a pile of work!!!
Well may as well start somewhere. First thing was to clean it up with a proper detail. And if you are going to buff the paint, you may as well get that decal out of the way.
Wow thats much better already. Winter time is too cold for painting and fillers and such so I left everything for a while.
Then I found out my wife has Fibromyalgia. Her joints and stuff will get worse and worse over time. So, whats a guy to do? I slapped her around and told her to suck it up! LMFAO! No, I pulled the factory blocks out of the back and decranked the front to level.
Just so you guys know, the decal in my back window is the symbol for the job I did in the navy. I put it on there to test my wife. She passed. I want it gone, but am too lazy to take it off.
Right now I am in Florida visiting my dad. It's warm enough to use filler and paint and stuff down here
I think it looks sooooooo much better without the cab spoiler and the sun visor thingy. I was floored when I took them off and found absolutely no rust. I need to fill the holes still. But I need to get some other stuff taken care of before I get back to truck.
