Just brought this back from Ohio saturday...It is totaled but has a clear title...It was my mom's truck and her husband was driving it and came over a hill and hit a cow broad side...Stupid kids left the gate open and the cows got out in the road...I will have it rebuilt in about 2 weeks...I got the truck for 770.00 from the insurance company...

This is what I have ordered so far for it...

New cowl induction hood...280.00
New core support...140.00
New aluminum radiator...140.00 (38 bucks shipping to get it here quick)
New Harley Davidson paintable headlight/grille surround...150.00
New factory bumper (getting cancelled as we speak hopefully, see below)
35x12.50x15 BF Goodrich A/T's (on another truck I bought a while back, so kinda free)

Soon to be ordered...

Dixon Bros. prerunner bumper...550.00
F-150 Front Right - Prerunner Trucks - Prerunner Maniac

Perry's Fab & Fiber flared low cut fiberglass fenders...300.00 (Red F150 on this site)
McNeil Racing: Flared Off Road Fiberglass Fenders, Bedsides, One Piece Front Ends, Bodies and Carbon Fiber and Fiberglass Dashes

A/C condenser...
Grant aftermarket steering wheel...(blown air bags)
Used factory headlights...
New clear corner lenses...
Aftermarket steel wheels...

alot of smaller odds & ends stuff will have to be bought new or from the junk yard...

 

i like those low cut flares. Should look really good when its done. Good luck buddy

 

Neat project... good luck!

 

Thanks guys...I am just happy the insurance company didn't total the truck, and the title only says 75K miles...I just wish I could use 15 inch wheels on it cause I got brand new 35x12.50x15 BF Goodrich A/T's on a 77 F150 I would love to use...

 

good project. ill be watching.

 

hope you have a spot welder handy, the core support is spot welded to the inner fenders which is spot welded to the cab

 

Where did you buy the cowl hood from? Can't wait to see some pics..

 

Looks like a good project man, cant wait to see it finished...

 

I just bought 2 used headlights, both air bags, hood hinges, hood latch, and all of the plastic substructure forward of the core support for only 350.00

Thanks...

I got everything I need...

I am going to strip the truck starting tomorrow and I am ordering the fenders and clear corners tomorrow...

 

looks interesting, going to be watching this too.

300 looks awfully cheap for the hood though.


(and here I thought it was going to be about that tv show that might be okay if they didn't feel they had to cut a 1/2 hour into 10000 pieces and camera angles.)

 

Same here...been waitin for someone to do this

 

where did you find the HD grille surround for $150?
Looks like a fun project

Some of the cow still in the headlight...


Us removing stuff at the junkyard...They had a 2wd and 4wd Expedition there and that is where we got everything...






Me and my brother pulling everything back straight...The wreck didn't put holes in the radiator or condenser...They were bent bad but not leaking...Thank god Ford designed the fan to set 7 inches from the radiator...I was driving it around the neighborhood after jumping on the hood and flattening it...









Under my carport/shop prepared for teardown tomorrow...

 

Will acetone affect the airbag/interior's texture...I need to remove the gray paint off it for the black under it cause my steering wheel and column is black, not grey like the rest of the truck...
