Show off your pre-97 Ford trucks

I got multiple messages about how much my truck was lifted and what size tire was on it, so I figured I haven't been on here in awhile and would post some more pictures of it up, along with my d44 solid axle swap going on now!
Next to my buddies 97 f-350 crew cab
This was after I leveled it 2" and had 33x12.50's put on the stock aluminum wheels. I also ditched the billet grille in favor of the factory piece I painted solid white.
Now some randoms at home in Indiana!

Here's big blue.
300 six, 5 speed, rwd, 2" leveling spacers, and 33x12.5s on the stock wheels. I need to do a couple small thing to it before I'm happy and I'm debating lifting a couple more inches but it's almost perfect.
I need to regear my rear end from the 3.08s that are in it and I need to replace the rear bumper because it's dented and a little bent but aside from that, it's near perfect.
I also pulled the rain guard things over the window off since this picture was taken, they just don't go with the clean look I'm going for.

hey thank you MG. I bought it late July as it looks. Paid only 3500. First time I've owned a reg. cab since h.s. i'm 56. The tool box really helps. Interior bench seat is in pretty good shape. 16 inch rims. I'm gonna be needing new tires before next summer. Only one is pretty bald. whoever had it before me really chewed up these tires. Been running great since I've owned it. plugs are good, and might flush out the radiator in NOv. as the last person just had water in it. All hwy miles for me not a stop light in town
I do love this truck. First time I saw it on CL in Medford, he was asking 5k. but I didn't inquire. then saw it listed at 4,500. my situation wasn't so great and he gave me a real good deal I thought for 3,500. I've never owned a truck like this although had a really great '93, that brown f150. Sure wish I had those tires on the truck I got now. those were beauties and like brand new. I didn't like driving a stick and towing a boat and it had bucket seats and it wasn't so great for the dog.
that truck was very well taken care of as well but the slave cylinder went out soon after getting it. I sold the boat and got rid of the truck. I want to install HID headlights and with the new tires that will be great

Here is my 89 XLT Lariat. We bought it back in March. It was parked on the side of the road with a "For Sale" sign on it and it looked like this:
After some clean up and $$ she now looks like this:
EDIT: I'll try to get some better pics and also include the front. Aside from paint she has brand new front/rear bumpers, billet grill, new Moto Metal wheels, BFG AT tires, new mirrors, new head and tail lights, completely replaced all the air conditioning, brand new sending units and fuel pumps/filters, new weather stripping around the doors, and new window channel kits installed.
Still needs a little work on the interior but she runs like a champ and sounds great!
