1977 Ford F150 Custom Rebuild
 
Hey I'm starting the rebuild on my '77 F150 Custom. The engine is good and the trans is good so im basicaly just doing the body. I might do the engine in a year or so but not right now since my shop is full of engines im rebuilding. Here is a list of all the bad things on the truck:
- Floor Boards have some holes in them.
- Rear Fenders are Slightly Rusted and Dented
- Box bed has a few holes.
- Box sides bend outwards when the tailgate is down.

Thats all thats wrong with it. Not bad for buying it for $500! Original Miles are 82'100. The engine is a 5.8 L V8 Windsor, Im getting a performance carb for it and putting a performance air scoop on it, im going to put a hood scoop on so the thing actualy gets air! Here is a picture of what im starting out with. http://s1131.photobucket.com/albums/...F150Custom.png

New tires and Rims! YESS!! figured out that an air scoop pisses off the cops, they think the car or truck isnt street legal. so screw that idea. and heres a picture of the new wheels and tires. not the ones i want but they where only $90 all together! not bad eh? New Rims and tires for the Ford! | Flickr - Photo Sharing!

Hopefully the link works AGAIN

Looks like a fun project! Keep the old wheels if they're stock, they still look good in the pic.;)
