Progress on my F-350...

I don't post on here much, but I'd post up some progress so far on my old truck.

It's an early '99 F-350 SRW 4x2 ECLB. Yes, I know its a bit of an oddball, but I got it cheap enough that it didnt matter, lol.

Anyway, here's how it started out:

-Pretty humble, huh?

Here was the first step - pulled the bodyside mouldings, buffed the front lights, tinted the tails:

After that, I started on a dechrome/lighting update. Pulled the chrome grille and front bumper, and installed a custom painted XL bumper and grille, and added some '05+ Harley Davidson headlights. Also added exhaust, 6.0 trans cooler, and sound stuff.

Well, I go tthe itch for some more changes, and was able to pick up my first graduation present - a set of Panther Juice 8's, in a 22x9.5,with 305/40-22 Kumho Ecsta STX's powdercoated black. One of my old bosses re-pinstriped the truck. Earlier, I'd had the truck windows re-tinted as well.

Forgive the pics - I've been working all kinds of crazy hours, and havent been able to get some really good pics, but snapped these the other night:

I know it needs a drop and some bodywork, but I really like the way the truck is going. Plans from here on are to finish the de-chrome, drop, bedcover and put some 05-07 badges on the fenders for a start.

What you guys think?
