Right now I am working on installing the Bendix power steering gear box, of course I am having a rebuild kit installed on it, as well. Also, we are adding a power brake booster from a 1967 F100.
Pics of installation coming soon!

That is a used grill that I purchased for $100 bucks.
A friend of mine hand polished it for me.

I really like what you have done to your truck, just a good smooth clean look. I have a front pan that looks very close to yours that I built 10 - 12 years ago, that I am thinking about using on my current build, the only difference I frenched fog lights into mine. Keep up the good work
