In the last 6 months ive put quite a few parts on the truck, Including new headlights, headerpanel, grill blinkers, Filler panel. new transmission.
And i thought id share some pics. And hell whats the point of testing a new camera and not posting the pictures.

I also welded my rear bumper back together. Looks normal-ish.

Ford headlight lens are common to turn yellow. I actually wetsanded my moms on her Grand Marquis and the came out so good, after you wet sand, you polish out the scratches, I used mothers powerball+power polish. After I did that, she rearened someone so I had to replace all the front end. I do have 1 of them ill snap a pic some time soon.

the funny thing is they never wanna match eachother. For instance my dads truck (97 f150) one is a little bit hazy.. and the other one is really hazy and yellow colored...it just looks retarded. But i dont wanna replace, so im not anything to him about it.
