need to drop steering linkage to clear engine 65 slick Help
Been working on my slick alot lately. I've had the motor in it for two years now. Finally got all my steering linkage and box bolted together and the tie rod hits the oil pan and oil filter on my mod motor. I only need to gain about an inch. I'm running 78 I beams, discs, p/s box.

Re: Factory tinted window glass
My windows Say HGC Glass. Rather than the logo you showed.
It's the rear glass, door glass, and wing windows all match.
So was this not a factory option ?

Factory tinted window glass
My 66 Parts truck has Factory tinted window glass. I have never heard or seen this until I got this truck.
How rare is this option? All glass is in good shape, been thinking of selling it to pay for other parts...

Re: My 65 F100/Ford Lightning Swap build
Once I found that the back of the cab needed re sprayed, I opted to fill the gas tank hole in the cab. Thus freeing up space for my seats, and room for other stuff in the cab. http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i84/TylerMclaughlin/My%2065%20F-100/Picture591_zps4cbfd095.jpg Mind you, I'm no body man, ...

I bought a wrecked Lightning drive train (motor trans wiring), and some other misc parts and am stuffing into my 65 F100. Seeing i...
