Lightning

Truck looks good, but I wouldn't buy this model because????? Sounds to me like the original 1400 miles are track and dyno run mileage. Awesome looking truck, but there are too many questions that needs to be answered first.

If you dont look for things wrong with it, it is a badass looking truck. It looks mean as hell!

I like it! I agree some of the work could've been done nicer, but I like the overall ideas. I like the shifter but not the sub. Wheels are nice too. Definitely a good start of a project....more engine mods and attention to the rough edges would make this a sweet, custom truck.

I think you gotta give this guy props for this truck. Yeah, its 90% finished and needs some work to make it right, but it sits right and has a great look to it. Also, I've never seen an L with a floor shifter, let alone an L with its A/C controls relocated to the center console! That's pretty cool!! And, like the guy said, he doesn't have the time to dedicate to it to make it right. I think whoever buys this truck is gonna get a pretty good deal. But, before they do, they need to ask a whole lotta questions!!

I like the idea of tubbing it for fatter tires.

I think it looks pretty good. If I was in the market for a used Lightning I'd take a hard look at it. But, I'm not **** about little details like the hood not lining up 100% perfect or anything. It is a Ford the stock hood probably didn't line up perfect either.

I have a question about the Street Scene grill. See how it sits really "flush" and almost seems flat? Where can I find one like that? It doesnt look as if he placed it over his existing factory ones, so why does this one seem so flush fitting compared to so many recessed Street Scene ones? Someone help me out and let me know where I can find these at (part #'s?).

I also like it, especially the Paint, Mini Tubs, and Floor Shifter.
I wonder if he figured out a way to manually shift it ????
With out figuring that out, it defeats the purpose

The only thing I dont like is giving up basically the entire bed just to relocate the batt and locations of the Bottle
