Nice find Kevin. In your search for parts if you come across a 2004 grill for a f150 let me know I hit a deer with my truck. Oh and $262 for 1 tire isn't crap. Mine are $500 each |

| Re: New 1:1 project. Should occupy my time and money for a while
Well, I've been collecting parts over the last few weeks and I am just about ready to get to work on it. I need some help, I've been back and forth on what color. I usually hate changing the color of a vehicle but in this case I am repainting all the jams anyways. The colors I am considering are:  Dark Shadow grey  Leaving it silver  White Post up your thought. |

I've been leaning towards DSG too. Here's the donor cab pieces. I am just going to cut the sections I need from them. They are not perfect but will be much better than the existing metal.  |

I vote Dark Shadow Grey...of course I'm biased since that's the color of my F250 and Harley  |

How can you not do red? LOL That said I always thought the DSG or even a metallic version of a DSG would look best on a Lightning. |

Does a color change drop the vehicles value? I realize that you are basically doing a reconstruction of a crashed truck but it seems that you intend to do a good job with the rebuild.

I traded my DSG '03 about 7 mos ago. Loved the color but I think I would have rather had white. Cant wait to see the finish product.

| Re: '02 Ford lightning rebuild project
Looking good thus far. My vote on color is the Dark Shadow Gray, one of my favorite colors. Another color I liked around that year which the Super Duty was available in was the Medium Wedgewood Blue metallic.
