Thanks, its stock but I keep it as nice as I can. Your truck gave me the inspiration to get and clean up those rims lol. We had an old dodge van sitting in the back 40 so I took the rims off, wirebrushed the spokes, masked and painted. Check out the pics:

I wish my paint was that good ![Frown](https://www.f150online.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
I was in the same situation on the wheels, actually the original owner of my truck sent me some pictures and one was in winter, with those wheels on the truck. They were his winter wheels with winter tires
I coated mine in acid a couple times, self etching primer and black paint and clear and they looked good. Winter and tire changes tore em up again. Mine were in much worse shape than yours to start though.
I found a site that has em new old stock and slightly used, they wanted 1500 for 15*10's. And yet we manage to find ours in fields and junkyards and what not.

Nope the hood was closed. I popped it from inside and used my shotgun to dig out where the latch was. When I pulled the rims there was a guy helping me that took the speakers and the doors\rear were the same way, full of nest lol. Van is still sitting there too. Its my mother in laws and she wont salvage it...even though we're moving. Thanks for the compliments guys

yes you could. i had a 1985 F250 XL Super Cab LWB 4x4 that had cloth seats, carpet, power windows, power door locks, tilt and cruise on the steering wheel. also had full gauges and A/C...
btw, here's my truck. it's a 87 4x2 with a 300/4-speed manual. it was my great grandfather's truck and i'm slowly making her look good again. the wheels are black now but nothing else has changed...
