Looks a lot better with the new tires. Liking the paint as well. Don't start over, that thing is awesome. Single cab is the way to go.

Im loving the flat black and 46s. how many miles on them? the centers look a little worn down. So have you gotten a chance to check out how much work its going to take to get the new cab line up with the frame? Isn't the spor trac alot narrower than the f-150?

the tires are used, the guy before me ran thm on a 16.5x9.75 rim and the tires are 19.5" wide so he got alittle crowning. Im hopin to get 5-8k miles out of them. which is easily possible. only payed 300 for them and i sold me old ones for 100 and the wheels that came with the tirs for 50 so really im only 150 into the tires

im not swapping on a sport trac body, im swapping on a Screw cab. I was telling DirtBound he should start to build a sport trac. lol
