I can't afford a Raptor, but...

I do love the leadfoot gray color available in those trucks! A few pics of my project:

Body work, paint, molding all done. Now I need some Alcoas.

It looks great as it is. A set of Aluminum Wheels would be the finishing touch.

Now who needs a Raptor (well ME and YOU, if we were given one, lol) but why, when you have a beautiful, er, HANDSOME, rig like this one! Awesome paint and attention to detail on your "TOUGH GREY TRUCK". The Ranch Hand Bumper makes it look even TOUGHER! Hey I look at your truck and say, I'd really rather OWN that.... than a payment. Plus, less electronic "crud" controlling everything from a Raptor's first breath till its final death. With your grey older finely painted Ford, ya know what you have because YOU did the work.

Wow... Simply beautiful. Good work! I've always been a fan of the factory trim/moulding even though lots of people like to remove it. It gives it more class in my opinion.

Awesome job!

Thanks all for the nice comments. I wish I could say I did the face lift, but I just guided the artist and paid the bill. I turn wrenches pretty well, but have no patience for body work and paint. The truck turned out awesome, much like the day I drove it off the lot 25 years ago. It's fun to keep my "classic" going and enjoyed the latest step in that process. I really enjoy this forum and the wealth of shared knowledge and comraderee around these trucks!
