Back in a F150 (2000 Harley project)

Hey guys hope all is well. Sold my truck a while back in order to study abroad, and backpack for a few months through Spain. Well... after many crazy solo miles with one bag and a couple of changes of clothes, lots of alcoholic drinks, and many beautiful women later... I'm surprisingly still alive and bummed to be back to "real" life ha. Anywho.. It's been a while since I've posted on the website but I got my self another F150. Pretty stoked. It's a project for sure but costed about me a lil less than a grand out of pocket, so why not... right? ha. Real quick, had been sitting in a backyard forgotten for past a year before I took over from the original owner, 120,xxx miles, Real Harley, have build number, interior good, slight front damage by the guys wife and they just bought another ride(frame good), had a rear blowout at some point, hence why the bed is different(don't know why he bought that one, but still looks alright). I picked her up, full tune up, changed COP'S, changed the module behind the fuse box(bad,prob from sitting a while got wet or something) and good to go mechanically. Body, I'm still going to school so kept it on a tight budget and decided to mess around with the vinyl wrapping for poops and giggles. Came out ...... ummm okay I guess for it being my first time.. deff far from perfect but beats dropping thousands for a new paint job. Now I was going to do the entire truck Metallic Flat silver (haha) but jacked up some of the material and had to just try something different with the half and half. What you guys think? Y'all Have a good one. -Peace -Dan
My old F150, I sure do miss it. 2001.
When I picked her up. Front Damage, with dark blue different style bed.
Front hooked up.
Interior.
Now, after 2" rear drop and temporary vinyl wrap. (Till I can save up for a legit paint job lol)

I like the faux "Shamu" vinyl wrap.

Definitely a good buy for the money. Is there a leak in the cab somewhere?

Awesome truck for under 1k. You seriously cant beat that. I think it looks good, but i think you are in desperate need of a new grill. Billet grill, harley grill, or lightning grill.
