That color looks good.
Thanks! It will look alot better once it gets re-painted.
I saw one the same color today. Weird.
Yeah, thats POOP from pigeons. Suprisingly, the paints pretty much ruined... But, there is some good news. The car on the left fired up instantly with 5 yr old gas, idles and runs good, has NO rust on subframe and towers. Minor rust just in front of left side rear wheel.
Deal included 87 and 88 TC along with 2 long blocks, 2 t5's 1 hood couple of rear bumpers and one front bumper, a few wiring harnesses and 3 boxes of parts that i still haven't inventoried.
They have all been powerwashed for about 45 minutes per car. Not looking too bad considering how terrible they were.

1958 Ford F100
351C with 2v heads, aluminum intake, holley 4bbl, long tubes, crane cam(.550 lift, 272 duration)
Converted to 4x4, coils and radius arms from ford bronco, dana 44 with discs and 4.10 gears, power brakes, power steering, ac, c6, np205, 9" rear with 4.10s, currently no lift, but planning for 3-4" and 35's. Tilt colum, custom dash. ONce the mechanical is done(again), its getting the body painted(was last painted about 14 years ago).
Uncle built it back in 95 and 96, but it had no power steering, drum brakes, manual brakes, different colum, i recently re-wired it, along with the new axles, and power options. Im working on the lift, resealing everything, power windows... I just installed the cam last winter. Its a work in progress but i think its pretty neat

My 1982 F-100 Flareside with a 3spd and a 302 V8, almost all original. I have the stock radio in storage ;-). My grandpa bought it new in November of '82 and had the dealer install A/C, and a mr bumper 12in drop rear. it's the same now except it's a 10in drop and the crappy aftermarket "digital" knob radio that I plan to replace when I can find the center bezel for a 83-86 which is single din, so I don't have to cut the original. Only 132k miles on her. (don't mid the wire it's a constant 12v for the radio, the factory radio did not need one, the wire is hidden now.)
I DD the F-100 now and let my mom use the Escape since she's been traveling allot lately. It's a workout, but it;s fun to drive and the a/c still gets cold enough to spray a mist on humid mornings. The ol' 82 is in good shape but needs some work, I plan to restore her to like new when I get the space, money and time.

My dad had a truck just like that only it was green. It burned to the ground in a barn fire back in the late 80's.

Here is My dad and I's little father son project...
1985 Mercury capri RS 5.0
First year we had it fresh paint (2000)...
Put some cobra R's on it (when they were still cool LOL)
First motor HCI 306/Hellion heat 61mm 460rwhp/500rwtq @ 10 psi (2006)
The guy who put the heads on didn't put all the dowels in (only put 1 in
) and this was the result..
So we decided to up the anti a little bit and went with a SHP Dart 363 with AFR heads.
Scat H-beam rods
Scat 4340 crank
Diamond blower pistons
AFR 185's heavily ported
\
New suspension and brakes...
New wheels (off my 04 cobra)
We decided to go with a TC78mm turbonetics because the little 61mm isn't going to cut it. this car should be putting down 650rwhp on pump gas and 700+ on MS109. Motors together just waiting on the turbo and the motor should be going ton the dyno in the next week or 2. I will be making a full build thread with pics and videos when it is all buttoned up.
