A friend of mine probably had a least one 72 Ford truck like yours many years ago.

I cobble together what I can when I can afford it. Amazon gets a lot from me. Price and selection is just too hard to beat most of the time.

Every so often I take pieces in for powdercoating. I found a place down the interstate that is reasonable and does a good job. I detest rust and grime.

Some photos are here.

Powder coating just ROCKS. When I was building my F-250 up I had the door handles, buttons, “Custom” script lettering, and the “FORD” block letters on the hood all powder coated Satin Black. Looked GREAT. And talk about DURABLE! You can’t hardly mar it with a hammer blow.

Checked out your pictures. Good work with the wiring on that rig. Monkeying around with the electrical is just about my least favorite thing in the automotive world, but your work looks really neat & tidy. Demonstrates some real perseverance.
