This is a project I'm working on for a mate. It's an imported LHD 4x4 big block F250. My task is rust repairs and a fresh coat of paint. Challenge so far has been the roof which was caved in badly, it's almost sorted...
F250 Project
White is the best colour for that generation

Yeah it is going to be white again ;)
Looks like a good project, love the old F trucks!
Awesome! F trucks are cool!

First coat of primer so I can now see what's required to straighten out the smaller imperfections

Painted the first door today but have an issue - my new (secondhand) compressor seems to let a LOT of oil past, and it got past the separator so it's got fish eyes all over it :( back to the drawing board

Cab is painted - have to have a second go at the bonnet, but the rest looks decent

Project complete.. now I can tidy up my shed and get cracking on MY 240.
Looks fantastic! Now for the owner to enjoy it again :)
It looks great! It's rare to see an F series of that era with decent paint and no rust.
