Picked this up this evening for my soon to be 16 year old daughter (and maybe a little for myself as well!) Has the good old no reverse issue but for what I paid for it, it was an absolute steal. It will be getting a replaced tranny (after I give the 1 in 1000 oring change a shot), going to replace the front and rear bumpers with either paint match white or black units, newer style headlights (cause old Ford headlights just suck), a new exhaust and a few other minor tweaks. Looking forward to picking up some great sources here!

 

Welcome to R-F! You should ditch the stock bumpers and get some tube bumpers. You'll have to do some custom fab but it'll look great

 

Well the stock bumpers on it are comming off, but since it will be primarily my daughters vehicle I'm just going to use black front and rear and probably add a bull bar up front. Ond day in the future it my be come my truck 100% and then I would move into the HD mods

Nice lookin truck! A Commercial Customer of mine just sold one similar to that one that he'd done the Expo 5.0L AWD swap to for $6800

 

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome aboard! I'm sure your daughter will be happy with your decision, it is a great truck. Good luck with all your upgrades and keep us posted!
