Yep,it looks great. I'm still wondering what the 150 model will look like. I believe
the Sport Trac was a one of a kind piece,but with the amount of work I'm sure they put into it,most likely it will be an actual product. I tried e-mailing Proglass from their web site(for info)and it wouldn't go through. Too many inquiries? ,,,,,98

Wish I could come,I was in Tampa not long ago

Question

What's a shaker hood? To me, a shaker hood is what was an option on the old muscle cars. There was a BIG HOLE in the hood where the cold air intake sitting on the carb would stick through. It would shake as the engine idled, hence the name shaker hood. What are you talking about when you say "shaker"?

My opinion on the "Badge": Gotta agree w/ Frank S. The SVT looks sooooo out of place. But not as bad as the el-cheapo Taurus (non-sho of course) with both SVT and SHO on the back and snakes on the sides I saw the other day. I laughed for a good while at that guy. I guess you either do or don't when it comes to stuff like that. The only people who know what the SVT means know it's not a SVT. I like the rest, and agree that charcoal was an excellent choice!

And for the he-paid-for-it-so-shut-your-trap-crowd, he did post this here for all the world to see and comment on. His last sentence in the first post is "whatcha all think?" It's not like we are coming up to his house and demanding he remove the badges from his truck. Damn people.. lighten up some. It's a message board, we are here to say want we want, not what people want to hear.

Well, when someone decides to write a $500 check to FMCC in my name once a month, then they can tell me what to put on my truck, and what not to. Until then...I'll do what I want, thanks.

Looks good, I say keep the SVT badges on there, like you said makes stupid think it's a special truck from SVT. What I don't like is you stealing my idea of how your going to paint your hood... Just joking. My idea is to get a regular crowl induction hood and just paint the sides of the raised part tan to match the lower part of my truck. Do you all think that would look good.

Truck looks good. I would have bought a L and took the lightning badges off.
