    Welcome to CHR. Do what you want with the truck. Nothing is so nice that a bit of hot rodding won't help it~!! Post some pics and enjoy your stay.

    Do you have any pics of that thing of what it looks like right now man? My advise is do what you think is best. Keep it old school though, don't do none of that crap like air bags on it and all that the kids (not kids like me) do and mess it up. All I know is that a flat black color on it would look nice. Get some pics if you can I wan't to see what it looks like.

    I would hot rod it to the hilt ...... and then avoid the "Mercury Preservationists Club" dudes.
