New from Ohio

Well I finally broke down and purchased a 1996 F350 DW CC 7.3. I will be picking it up on Tuesday. I have been looking for close to two months now. I wanted a combination that was hard to find in this area. Crew cab, diesel, not a 6.0, not rusted to hell, and not overpriced. Finally I came across a great deal and jumped on it... but the DMV is closed till Tuesday... So now I get to read a million threads on stuff to do to it the day I get it haha :naughty:

A little background on me:
Marines out of highschool
1 tour OIF
2 tours OEF
Medically discharged DEC '11
Worked at Summit Racing for a few years
Currently working for The Kenan Advantage group.

Anyways, Im excited to join and learn from others peoples mistakes and successes.

So to start it off here are a few pics that I have so far.

Oh ok cool.


So I decided what my winter project will be as well.

I want to build a fiberglass or leather center console. But it being a crew cab, I want to take the bench out of the back and do captains chairs and make the center console run from the dash all the way back.

Have a double din up front, cig liter, USB, two cup holders, a dip can holder, and an armrest with storage. Then as you go back two more cup holders, cig liter, USB, and an arm rest with storage.

I am going to work on a draft when I get home tonight.
