That's a pretty good price on that old Ford -- so low that it makes me wonder how much work it needs......

The heaven's just opened up down here in Houston again -- supposed to be one more front of rain and then beautiful weather through the weekend!

Wow -- weird to think that Prince is dead!

Back in the early-80's my sister worked at the Holiday Inn in Bloomington, MN, where most of the cast and crew was staying during the filming of "Purple Rain". She said that at least once a week Prince would roll up to the hotel on his motorcycle and proceed to race up and down the hallways of the building on his bike for no apparent reason. At the time she had no idea who Prince was -- just some short little Black guy who dressed like a woman! Let's just say that the staff at the Holiday Inn was happy when "Purple Rain was a wrap......

Just ordered some rear wheel well liners. Hopefully they're simple to install.

My Ford accessory units were really easy install.

Haven't seen how some of the aftermarket ones go in, so can't comment on those

Easy install and you'll be happy with the looks and protection. I still don't understand why Ford doesn't provide them when GM and Dodge does. I guess everyone has to cut corners somewhere.

It isn't pristine, if you look at the front on pic you can see a little misalignment on the hood. But it still is pretty cool. I just jumped out of the truck and snapped those pics, didn't check it over too much.

There was another black and white one around that would make you drool.

I ordered them from a local guy I like to use for accessories. They're Pendaliner. He had Husky, but the Pendas cost less, and I've had Penda bed liners for years, so infighter they'd be fine.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to having them! I don't care for the exposed look. I've noticed it's particularly bad on a Chevy. Makes it look like an unfinished truck.

Maybe GMC? Never seen a Chevy with them. Hell in 2007 chevy stopped using plastic bed side caps

Seen newer Dodges with them
