My automotive mentor referred to this color as: resale red & arrest me red!

You might reword that to: "Anyone R-E-D-d-y to use one for their Bullnose? Great comparison!

Think the mower will fit?

Maybe Janey can store sewing supplies in the empty totes, after you wash them!!!

Mr. NumberDummy is away from his computer until Friday.

Jonathan, I am certain someone will be able to answer your question and perhaps even supply the part, but I will share something that happened to me. My son's 1984 with manual O.D. was born with 2.47 rear gears. A change to 3.55 gears was rather dramatic. Before knowing about the different gear possibilities, the truck was taken to a shop which specialized in this sort of thing. At that time, they were the shop [Atlanta area] which calibrated the speedometers of Highway Patrol cars. They cut the speedometer cable and installed a small device which had internal gears [like a transmission] which adjusted the speed of the speedometer cable and certified the speedometer to read 55 mph @ 55 mph. This device has been in place since about 2000 and has had zero problems.

This is very neat. I saw it on another forum and thought we all can learn from watching the attached YouTube video:

Welcome to the forum! I like the looks of your truck!

Fellow forum members, Over the weekend, I felt the need/urge to post something which I hope will be beneficial. Recently, we have all followed the parts being offered by one member to another. This is great and what we are all about... helping each other come closer to completing a project. But, buyer beware! People are people and have different thoughts about what is fair. Years ago, on another forum, I made a purchase from a member who was a "posting guru" with thousands of posts. As a somewhat "newbie", I trusted the individual and sent a check and never received the part; only excuses. One of the moderators PM'ed me after I posted a warning to others without mentioning the name of the one who took advantage. The moderator had been following the particular thread where the part was being described and figured out who the offender was. The moderator "knew" the individual and contacted him via PM as well as email, but the outcome was the same. What is hard for me to comprehend is that the offending individual was well respected with regard to his knowledge and ability to find treasures at the junkyards and was willing to give all that up... it was found that he had done the same to others and the word got out on the forum. He withdrew from the forum. What a waste of talent. Years later, one comes to know others who are men of integrity. They do what they say they will and you can put total trust in them as they are motivated differently. There are some for which you can see a part that you know is desired by one of the men of integrity and make the purchase, so it will not be bought by someone else, and you know the person will be thankful and will make the proper compensation. You can send something to one of these and if they say they will pay and cover freight, you know the "check is in the mail". I feel that many on this forum fall into this category, but have had actual transactions with two. Some of you, no doubt, know of others. Gary Lewis and Jonathan Donald definitely fall into this category. Others, I trust fully just by their history, but have not actually dealt with them in an actual parts transaction. Be careful at first and use PayPal or certified checks, etc. I hope this will be taken in the way I mean it and helpful to any "newbies". David

Welcome to the forum, loveco! That is a straight looking body on your truck! The chrome looks to be in very good condition.

I wondered how Chris was able to fund the extended vacation in LaLa land?

Jim, Gary and Bill, I, for one, really appreciate how all of you work together! It is an example of why we need this forum... not only for forum members, but for the "world" of 1980-1986 enthusiasts. We have a fine balance of the desire to authenticate originality and provide details of what can work as an upgrade to our aged trucks. Thanks to all three of you and please keep it up for the rest of us.

Great find regarding the wheels, Jonathan! You are making a lot of progress!! Jonathan, I suggest that you sell the factory set of buggy wheels and either contribute that money to the family budget or towards the purchase of the 16" wheels, which is what you have really wanted all along!

Seeing all the parts packaged for shipping reminded me of Radar O'Reilly, on M.A.S.H., when he was shipping a Jeep, one part at a time, back to the farm in Ottumwa, Iowa. Hmmm... does that date me?

That is good, Gary, but neither of us is either of the two involved in that verse!

If anyone ever thought about having an overhead console in their 1980-1986 truck, this probably could be made to work and would fall into that category of "what FORD could have made". https://www.ebay.com/itm/92-96-Bronco-Tan-Overhead-Roof-Console-Black-Trim-Panel-Garage-Door-Opener-Light/162725756432?fits=Make%3AFord%7CModel%3ABronco&hash=item25e335fe10:g:OkIAAOSwLJ9Z8QnY&vxp=mtr https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/OkIAAOSwLJ9Z8QnY/s-l1600.jpg

Thanks, Gary and Jonathan.

Well, F200 on both fenders = 400! And, the SP could represent SUPER POWER!
