Progress! That hood is wild!

The black paint in the center will tone it down.

A bit more progress but crappy cell pics. I put the grill on, the radiator and the antenna mount. I was all set to put in the ac condenser but they brought me the wrong one again!
I cant install the upper radiator hose till all the ac lines are connected cuz it gets in the way. I have the upper bumper pad ready to go on but the brackets are a Ford only part so I have to order them from the dealer. Luckily I found the upper bumper pad for $70 brand new. Since Ford went after all the after market companies the dealer is the only place to find the rest of the parts I need. I might have to put on Leo's old bumper for a while till I find a fog light bumper used. On with the pics....

And dont worry, the flames are definitely coming off!

Has that radiator been pressure tested? It doesn't look good.

So, I guess you're having a problem finding some "thingies" for a Ford truck.....?
