As far as interior Im shipping my seats off to be reupholstered and putting in new carpet, headliner and putting in the navi door panels. Body wise the front clip is securely mounted and lights are functional but still a silver front end and faded black. Surprisingly my wife has been a good sport about everything and supporting me fully, but then again it could be cause Im a suck ***** and bought her 06 expedition to replace her old one that someone ran into the side of and jammed the doors in a parking lot. I will post more pics later tonite or tomm.

Update. Ive been driving the truck daily for the past two weeks and had front end painted black. she runs great, I installed a single 16" e-fan as my first performance upgrade and keeps the truck cool, next up is lightning exhaust and intake (not cold air rains too much). next will be my front suspension it squeeks and drives me nuts but that will be my next project and lucky me have found out whats for my birthday and xmas present from my wife. The truck is going up 7.5 to be exact and cant wait. Ill try and post recent pics
