    Zimm,

    You're welcome. Glad I could be of help.
    Personally, I'd think it'd be cooler if you stuck with the six, but if you're happier with the V8, so be it...after all, it is your truck. :D
    IF you do plan to stick with the six, I read in one of those thread, @ Fordsixperformance, that using an Offy intake with a Clifford header can cause some headaches, as the Offy uses a stock-style heat riser and the header apparently smacks that connection (why they couldn't just have the thing shaved down is beyond me).
    Fenton setup would be "much way cooler", as an old work friend used to say.
    ;)
    Good luck and maybe you could do a thread on how the project goes, when you get around to starting the work.
    I'm sure there's others here that would find the information helpful, too.

    65FordGuy,

    Look familiar?
    I got that pic out of this thread, so the owner is probably a member here.

    Yeah, I've been finding pictures of it here and there... but never by the owner... in the article I got those pics out of it says he has done several of these f100s at his shop. but, this was his first one done in this style.

    Curious to see what the others look like.

    Yes, as do I.
    Its a great example of a masterful use of only a few basic colours and hue's, to create a classic look.
    ...I'd like it better with a 223, but that's just me. ;)

    Finally got the wheels changed on mine. So, here's a couple of new pictures.

    Pictures were shot by "Thanks2Frank" (www.thanks2frank.com).

    I've cut 2.5 coils out of the front springs and pulled 3 leaves out of the back. The front wheels are already sitting like this / \. Can't go any more without dropped twin I-beams ($$$).

    I also still need to be able to use it as a truck and haul my motorcycle in the back.

    I'm thinking about pulling more leaves out and putting on air shocks in the back.

    Tomcat,

    Nice work on the truck.
    The whole thing looks fantastic and the ancient a/c unit is a nice touch.

    ...and yet another truck doing the dark/white theme to great effect.
