Default 74 F100 Thread

Haha a thread for my truck... w00t!

Well my truck is gonna go thru a few moderate changes so this... is the thread.

Well, its running great... gets me to work and gets me around. I was gonna buy a glasspack for it this paycheck but I needed to pay insurance this month.

That was my usual check though... these last 2 weeks I have been working my ass off and have worked 40hrs each week. So in about 2 weeks, i'll have a fatty check. I am gonna get a glasspack and take it down to the muffler shop and have them put it on and weld it on. I wanna go to a boneyard and find a tailgate for it also. Buy a few little things for it and ditch that stock air cleaner system and get a chrome one. Give it a FULL tune-up and flush the oil system and the radiater. And leave the rest over money for gas and misc...

The paycheck after that, I wanna search craigslist and see if I can find a set of some nice tires (not big ass super swampers, just some nice chrome ones with maybe so wider ones in the back) lmao. And I'll see if i can buy a stereo and some speakers since rollin with a portable CD player, and some computer speakers is pretty gay...

Anyway, this summer I wanna do some body work with it and paint it. (flat black?)

But yeah, one of these weekends when its nice i wanna take it up to the strip and see what i can get for a baseline and then i'll bring it back with a few mods.. (headers...)

Well, thats about it... I'll have to go get some vids and pics of this weekend. I dont have to work. I'll see if I can take a few vids of it tomorrow of my muddin lmao.

Some F150's and bronco's have the 10 hole rims that look nice, or find some '99-2000 Lightning rims(you can find them for $200 sometimes)and then burr out a hole of each to fit.

Any truck rims would be nice. I dont really like the lightning rims too much. I dont want any "4x4" rims either. I want to get some larger wheels in the back so it has the street truck look. But ANY rims are better then the ones i have now lmao.
