quick60, posted this on the first page of this thread. Except for not being near as pretty and the only chrome is the pited door handles, my truck started out as a bare-bone 3/4 much like yours. I think there was no SPID because there was nothing to put on it.
Love the Chrome grill, but mine will probably just get paint.

I will be painting it a '07-08 ford color called Creme' Brulee. One more job before I partially strip it down for paint. The old style saddle tanks will stay, but get gauge sending units and painted, flush mounted doors. The cab tank will go away.
Drove it 282 miles out to Palm Springs today. Ran it 65 to 75 mph the whole way with the AC blowing cool in low 90s weather. Managed 15.3 mpg. Could have been better, but I'll live with it.
