This old girl is still hangin in there with me since 1999. I bought it used from a Nissan Dealer the day JFK Jr. went missing with hs wife.
Not much to tell, it's a work truck. I straightened all the little dents, put a fresh coat of Ford GA BC/CC and added a second color along the bottom bodyline with a BASF colormax Charcoal Grey Metallic.
The truck is basically stock, but it currently only has 96K original miles. It's very clean and dependable.
Some of my friends think dropping in a 5.0 would make it perfect, and I tend to agree. But gasoline these days isn't what it was when I first got my drivers license, so staying practical will have to do for now.
This color in the sun is just too pretty, when it's clean.
Plastic bedliner hides some pretty well preserved original paint underneath.
A couple more angles to check out.
And of course the drivers side of things.
Like I said, it's a work truck and a damn good one at that. Hope U like.
October 2009, I'll be handing this truck off to my son in about 12 months. The Missus and I agreed that driving one truck for over 10 years is a bit much, and I deserve something new. My problem is simple. What do I replace it with? Another truck, a new MINI for me, a used sports car/luxury model, or should I buy another hot rod to play with. So many choices.
