So far it looks like I have the HID system and demon eye relays to mount, projectors need to be mounted and aimed, once aimed they'll be sealed.

Fog light HIDs need to go in and cut off shield installed on the lens (yes they're pnp and reflector but black vinyl will make an adequate cutoff )

Grille, side trim and belt line trim will be black plastidipped - is it bad my 3rd brake light stopped working so I'm just plastidipping the whole thing black?

Dash cluster led strip install. Have a loose bulb that's causing some flicker so I have LED strips to replace them.

Hopefully it'll be cool so I can throw on a quick detail and polish.

Monday the exhaust goes in while I'm at work.

Here's a super zoomed in ranged version of name-that-car

Ford F-250.

Oh, you meant the Karman Ghia.

Put the Ghia in the back of the 250 for bonus points. Question - how come people seem to opt more for 250s over 350s? Is it because the 250 is bigger than the 150 but they dont own a construction company?

F-350 is a more heavy-duty truck. It has some stronger components, but is thus much heavier. People who don't need that get an F-250.

makes sense. So that's why you always see 250s and not 350s on the heylookhowfastmybrotruckis videos? Though some are stupid fast

F250's are also geared different, therefore are faster on the top end when tuned. For example I have two friends with the same Smarty programmer on basically identical trucks, except one is a 2500 and the other is a 3500 SRW. Where the 2500 could do about a buck forty, the 3500 ran out of gear at about 100.

so the 350s, 3500s, I can't remember what Dodge's big hauler is - they really are built for big hauling then. Good to know. Its funny cause I'd always see a fixed up 250 and wonder why they didn't just go for the 350.. but now I know

Dodge's are also 3500's. Also, 3500's are very uncomfortable unloaded. Wearing a seatbelt, I got shot up into the headliner of one of my other friends 3500 when we went over a speedbump. Granted, he had helper springs, but still every other 3500 I've ridden in is substantially worse than it's 2500 stable mate.
