Wax on Wax Off
I bought this F150 Stepside to Restore
local use and car show duty and was gonna re paint it but after http://i46.tinypic.com/i35hms.jpg I decided to just drive it! Deep washed the oxidized paint good with Simple green.Then Waxed each body panel Three times took about 10 hours but i have more time then money. 302 auto DSO-75 that is all.......over http://i48.tinypic.com/s41ffq.jpg |
Andy, I absolutely LOVE your truck! It looks great...
|
very nice. I bet it is rust free too. When I was out in New Mexico earlier this year I was amazed at all the old cars sitting around on blocks in back yards. NO rust on them.....
excellent place to buy a vehicle for sure. |
Thanks Bill
We are in AZ for the winter and the 85 looked excited to see us (haven't told him about the whip clip yet) started and ran a few cars and are charging batteries as i type this! Jim Yes Noooooo Rust here! I had sent to FoMoCo for the report on this truck! I know it was sold in AZ and i was curious to see what dealer sold it! I worked for a Ford dealer (now long gone) as a parts man in the early 80's but they had no record of what dealer it went to? here is another before and after Look how burnt the paint was on the before!! I thought i was gonna have to re paint!:) http://i47.tinypic.com/2899awo.jpg |
That is a very nice and rare truck! Looks great!
|
Unbelievable difference...very nice.
|
I'm glad you took the bug deflector off. The after pics look real good!
You said that you sent off a letter to FoMoCo to find info on the truck. Could I do the same for my SSP? To whom do I send it to? Address? Thanks. |
a few more.
I know how we think of SAVING SSP Mustangs I think this truck has had a second chance also it will see lite duty (car show) stuff and an occasional trip to town. Thanks for the kind words. last pict. is what it looked like when i bought it Headache rack tool box n all. http://i45.tinypic.com/20rvehx.jpg http://i50.tinypic.com/4glnck.jpg http://i46.tinypic.com/2mesd95.jpg |
Really cool how some trucks look sooooo much better when all the goo gahs and tack ons are taken off and the truck is returned to its simple factory state. Truck looks awesome. Great work Andy.
