Does anyone know of any replacement western style mirrors that are adjustable up/down as well as in/out. I'm pretty tall and I have to crouch down to see out my mirrors and it's getting old. Plus the old ones are getting rusted up so some new shiny ones would look a whole lot better.
That's what I have trouble seeing in my truck too. Dash is tolerable, but those LED's sure make it better.Got some new inside door panels, pads, and finger cups a while back to replace the busted ones from when someone took my truck for a joyride smiliecrybaby It's about to go into winter...
Awesome, thanks for looking! Reinforces the track we were on. Might order 57-59 just incase it needs a little more with the headers on it.That's what I figured with the build location. Run the plants at capacity and ship the trucks where they needed to go.
Thanks for the link! I'm honestly not sure what's in there now since I wasn't the one working on it. The guy said he didn't have the jet size I needed at the time, but put in as close to what was needed out of what he had in his little shop. He thought it needs to be in the 57-58 range. I know...
Kinda late to the party here, but the rebuilt carb that came on the 400 in my '79 F150 has mostly been a headache. I think the guy that I got the truck from said the carb came from O'reilly's so don't get one there. An old mechanic that's pretty sharp said it was setup more for a 302. Still...
I get water coming in mine through the foot vent on the passenger side if it rains very hard. I need to take it all apart and check out why. I suspect enough stuff has fallen in the top opening between the hood and windshield to block any kind of drain hole it may have before coming in the...
I just had mine out of the plastic tank last summer when I was revamping my fuel system, but I can't remember how long it was. It looked good and was working with the gauge so I didn't pay that much attention to it. Just had to replace the rear one with the new tank. Now the front one isn't...
I was just about to get rid of Facebook too. Between me and my friend putting the word out, it seemed to have spread pretty far. Gas station attendant I didn't even know all the way across town said "I saw that on Facebook!" when I mentioned it. A few people contacted us saying it was spotted...
Sure. It was stolen from right in front of my work building at HDR (29th street off of King Ave.). Was found out in Lockwood in the Burger King parking lot.
Got it back today!!!! Good Samaritan on facebook located it and directed me to its location. It's got some extra mud, a few new scratches down the passenger side, antenna ripped off, and the hand holds on the door panels seem to be ripped lose part way so it must have been a hell of a joyride...
Well, some scum decided to relieve me of this last night. Hope I get it back in one piece, or at all. Located in Billings, MT, but if you guys start seeing parts for sale resembling this truck in your circles...
Has anyone successfully repaired broken mounting pins on the back of the aluminum emblems before? I had my truck parked a little close to the wall in the garage, and the latch on the walk-in door caught my camper special badge and broke one of the two pins off. Dad has a welding business so...
Thanks Ben! I'd be real interested in seeing better photos of that '79 brochure. Depending on the lighting of the photo, someone may have tampered with my truck's original colors slightly. I discovered it has been re-painted at some point because there's some overspray on the back side of the...
