nice, doesnt look much like an 10 year old Expy from the front anymore

I work for Land Rover, so let me know if you need any information on those headlights, those projectors are likely the auto aiming ones that have motors in them that turn with the vehicle, and self level up and down as well

Ah crap your right, then they run off the computer, that won't work. I also have a set off a Toyota 4 Runner I may have to use them.

Yeah she sure doesn't look like a 10 year old truck anymore. The only thing that I'm not going to touch right now is the motor & trans. Truck runs great right now and in the spring I'll be looking to do a L SC install. Right now I just want to get this thing back on the road and enjoy it. Its been laying all apart around my shop for the last 5 years.

yea actually each light fixture has a module in it that talks to several other on board modules. of course its possible to get them to fire up, and w/o the motors working, and it will stay in the neutral centered position.

Yeah I made a mold of a Stang hood and molded it to the Expedtion hood. I have an easy 70 hours into that hood.

Here is a photo with the upper GT scoop on the hood. I happen to like the look but no one here in the shop does. I think it makes the truck look even more aggressive.

I was actually going to ask if you had the scoop or not. I agree it makes it look more agressive.

Unfortunately I won't be able to back that aggressive look up with any substance...well at least until I do the "L" swap.
