I piicked up this 1992 Ford Nite for a new daily driver for the winter months, since I didnt really want to drive my prelude. I bought it as a "solid, reliable" truck that could jump right into use, with a "brand new" gas tank, and no leaks.
... turns out the gas tank leaked worse than anything ive ever seen when you put more than 25 bucks in, and leaks oil out of the pan like a siv.
Here's a pic of it, not a bad looking rig I guess...
its got a rebuilt 351w, bored .40 over, comp cam, etc.
My plans are a 4" or smaller coil in front, preferably a 2", with some decent shocks. I need 4, because of this awesome quadshock set up
I really wanna ditch the tailgate, and do a nice spare tire mount, and a spot for gas cans, tools, etc.
Bumpers are high on the list too.
I just want a nice handling dd, that i could take into the dirt and rip around the little whoops, and tow all my chevy buddy's out-which doesnt take much.
More pic's tmrw, hopefully get 'er in the shop on tuesday.

Excellent! I'm glad they made it OK. Those are really nice springs. Way better than a standard "lift" coil.
Sho nuff,
