Default Officially Mine

Just got back from the BMV with the title and plates, so it's officially mine.

1997 F150 SuperCab, 4.6L 5 speed with 133,000 miles.

Practically new Pirelli tires, minimal rust, overall a nice clean truck! It has it's bruises (passenger's side) but I'm excited to get back in one, it's been a few years now. Glad it's a 5 speed too, I was dead set on that and it took forever to come across this. Asking price was $4,500, I brought it home for $3,300.

Thanks. First thing I am planning is 99+ bumper swap, tint, exhaust, Gotts Mod.

Also I usually coat the frame/underbody with used motor oil when I get them

In the rust belt it really keeps them clean. My dad has been doing it to his 01 Screw, and underneath it still looks like a brand new truck. Not a spot of rust on it.

And it's free, we always have gallons upon gallons of oil
