not bad so far, what are your plans?
 
Thank you very much. I suppose just like everyone here i want to get the MP3 body kit, considering different wheels but i kinda like the stock ones, turbo upgrade, front mount, tint windows, take the orange out of the front lights, and that will be it for a little while. My wife says i cant leave well enough alone. I have a 76 F-100 that has a little over 30,000 grand in it. This car was supposed to be my daily.

Nate - how did you fill in the holes where your badges were ?

You have to seal the hole. On way of doing it is weld a piece of metal to cover the holes from the inside and fill the holes with Bondo (body filler), sand it down and paint.

Tein/Mazdaspeed lowering springs? what does that mean?

The back looks nice and low, the front a bit higher... but it's a lot better than it was :p
 
i bought the springs off of casopolis, the fronts are mazdaspeed and the rears are tein lol thats why the front's higher but hey, for $40 i can't complain when i eventually get new struts i'll prob replace the front springs with something lower but for now its kool i like it alot better than stock height anyway:D

^yup been repairing things lately, getting her ready to be repainted, and i can neither find nor have the desire to look for paint that matches the sand mica, so as i fix things i just repaint them black much easier and cheaper to work with lol but it'll all be gone at some point during winter heheh:D

I just really like the MP3 body kit. But you might be right that seems to be the way everyone is going. How does that axelback work you? Did you see an improvement in any way?

and by everyone you mean the maybe 50 people out of the thousands that own sedans. Then drop that 50 people down to maybe 30 that actually have complete conversions done. Its still unique even though it seems like "everyone" on the boards is doing it.
