So i have been reading all thses build threads and was wishing that i had discovered this wonderful website about a year and a half ago when i first got my truck, back when it was bone stock. I would have loved to document my progress and share it with you all. But i guess ill start from where im at now. So recentaly a parked it for a while to work on it and my current plans are to change out the crappy chrome grill for a stock black one, put on the late 80's style mirrors, drop in my electic fans out of a ford windstar, and cheange the steering box.

Guess ill start off when i put a 4 inch block in the front (don't worry its not a lift block) It takes the spring mount in the front a drops it 4 inches, i only have a couple of crappy cell picture so here you go guys.

Did some work today got the mirrors painted, the were originally white, i also got the grill painted as well. As for the bowtie emblem I am paniting it red, so i think the black on red will look good on the truck. What do you guys think? The fans are all wired up and workin so that a plus. Here is some eye candy, can some one tell me how to post pictures on a thread where everyone can see them?:bow:
