That's great! Lucky kid.

You should take that grille off and ship it to me for "storage" while he works the kinks out of driving. :wink: :D Would be a shame to dent it up :lol:

I was looking at the "primer" bumpers on LMC and was thinking "why wouldn't I get chrome?" Looking at those white bumpers, NOW I know why. It's a good look. It would look a little goofy on my truck, but I like it on yours.

I replaced that rear bumper "rusted to far" with the chrome one from LMC now wish I hadn't if anyone has one like in the pics that's just taken up space let me know.

Excuse my ignorance, but what options make for a custom cab? I suppose I've spent enough time geeking out on bumps that this is something I need to know!

Custom cab has the Plastic fancier dash bezel instead of the steel one, horn ring instead of button, chrome headliner parts instead of painted, door panel chrome instead of just screw heads showing, day night rearview mirror, rear facing bed light not sure if this is an option on standard cab or not. There is probably a few small things I left out. The ranger and explorer come with fancier door panels more chrome around the dash bezel and wood grain dash bezel not sure if the custom cab came with carpeting. My 69 f250 custom cab came with rubber mats that went around the sides where as my standard cab mats just covered the floor pans. hopefully these pics help. The standard cab in the top picture should not have the horn ring just horn button in center
