this really makes me wonder how my redneck ram-air lopo would run now. (this and having taken it out yesterday and felt it pull all the way to 4K and shifting instead of dying just before shifting.)
I really need to find a track around here and run 'em.

That is how you're supposed to jack it.
Up and down.

Looks fantastic Zach. I may have asked this already but did you just paint in the silver on the bumper...bumperettes?
Looking back at the pics...did you also put a silver accent around the marker lights in the taillamp housings along the side of the car?Last edited by 87gtVIC; 12-06-2014, 07:28 AM.~David~

Thanks guys, and Dave, yes, good eyes. Just cleaned them good, and used a silver paint marker with many coats. Has held up flawlessly so far, I think it looks neat.2020 F250 - 7.3 4x4 CCSB STX 3.55's - BAKFlip MX4

I really like it. Will probably follow suit next summer as it gives the vehicle a really nice touch. Not to mention a hell of a lot cheaper than piecing the actual parts together off the inetnetz. I've seen the bumperettes available with the silver accents at about 50 a pop!~David~

Swapped in the fuel tank from the 89 today. I was still running the stock CFI pump, and while it seemed able to keep up, it was louder then hell, and i just didn't trust it. Since the 89's tank was nice and painted and had a nice new 190lph pump in it, I just swapped it over. Now it's nice and quiet and I don't need to worry. Also swapped out the cargo coils for some HD/PI spec springs I had laying around.

Took this POS to Carisle this year. First time ever going, I'm not a big car show guy, but it was fun, lots of neat cars. I was actually surprised at the amount of compliments I got on this car, I guess a clean box nowadays draws some amount of attention. Got 21 mpg with the cruise set at 75, which is good enough for me.
None of these pics are mine, I don't like taking pictures.
