Really nice work~! Is that one a sold vehicle now that the new owner got a good deal and had you do it, or was it a ressurection for the dealer?

The owner was really pleased with it.

After litigation, the truck was taken back by the owner after Ford fixed the problems and settled out of court.

I had to do the front half in the garage and then pull it out and back in and do the back half. Big truck!
