Thanks for all the compliments, it was a labor of love for these old trucks, my wife quit asking about a year ago and I stooped keeping track of the cost because it was already at the scary point a year ago. I'm thankful that I've been blessed with a good family, good friends and after quadruple bypass six years ago at 54, I am now stronger and in better health than I was at 50. Thanks again and have a blessed day.
I'm not trying to start a new topic but for everyone's information, I insured this with Hagerty, Agreed upon full value replacement, Liability, Med Pay, Uninsured, Under Insured, Collision, Comprehensive and Spare parts coverage with a Zero Dollar deductible, The cost is so cheap it was almost unbelievable. About one third of what my 2010 F-150 Lariat Cost to Insure.

Re: Post your 4X4 pictures HERE!!
I am of an age now that most of life's lessons were learned the hard way;
Life is hard, but it’s harder when you’re stupid.
Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear or a fool from any direction.
Never ask how stupid someone is 'cause they'll turn around and show you.
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
If you had the choice “Looks or Brains” take the Brains, Looks will get you thru the first half, but Brains will last a lifetime.

Re: Post your 4X4 pictures HERE!!
Thanks for the comments, I agree, it was worth every penny. Most likely could not sell it for close to what it cost to restore, but it does not matter to me, it's here for the long haul. The grand-kids will be the ones who will sell it.69SCJ wrote:Tpdaniels, that is stellar!!! Worth every penny IMO, no matter what ya spent.

looking good! Don't see too many crews here in the Volunteer State. Is that PVC for a body lift?
