About my F-100

Been parked for over 22 years. My grandfather got the truck new then gave it to my dad and he drove it for a short time and had it parked then gave it to me. Truck had 352 auto/air,I Changed it to a update 71 mustang 302 cu,1985 AOD trans with all the toy's... repainted  inside and white leather tuck & rolled(seat, head linner,doors pannals as well. Also added power steering,she gets great MPG and very fun to drive here in Tulsa,OK, truck that had very little rust,had off frame reworked from tires up.
I have met some realy nice folks when driving this old truck and enjoyed talking with them. My health is starting to go down hill and may have to sale her, This will be a sad day. But for right now I will just have fun in my old custom cab,81,000 mile on her now.

Diamond plate rails are custom, had a shop make them.
The tail gate trim is store bought.
As far as the speedo..I cleaned her up ,added a small sunpro tack II on the left side, and clear coated the unit.
Side Rails are there for when I have the topper on , keep froom scratching my old truck.

Nice truck
Question
Did you get your speedometer redone? I would like to clean mine up and yours looks great.
Also are the diamond plate rails custom? I was told you can't get ones to fit off the shelf

I will be adding more pictures, this old truck also has a matching camper/toper and matching pull trailer that realy brings back the old 60's  look. I must say that I have seen a few very shape 65/66 f100 here on the net and around the USA, and most are trick out (as my son tells me)is the words, but for my self I stayed with the old look. Also many thanks to you folks for the kind words.
