The 97-03 F150s are the best looking trucks out there when built. Don't change it!

Agreed.

I agree! Just needed a reminder.

Looks awesome Geoff , can't wait to see it out in the desert. I have a soft spot for built SUVs

They handle better with the extra weight in the rear plus they just look like they should not be in the dirt! Haha.

Doesn't maybe look as good as 3 piece with factory grill, but looks like this is still available from McNeil based on a comment on the Eisenhower brothers' insta page.

I could see it being easier to build with an actual race truck.

^^ Glass looks pretty good. Better than cRaptor glass. Get rid of the louvers and it would be even better though. IMO

nope.

G-maw implications aside, I might be noticing something a little off about the "mouth / grill" also. Kind of makes me think of a melty over-nuked grill.

Maybe at least one pair of them, kind of too strong 2000 / early 2010's vibes

I like that the arches don't have to be cut even with those big tires, might be more effective as an actual wheel well that way.

Well we kept the front glass and fixed it because i ran out of truck funds. She also got 4 new doors and a new roof 2 days before the race. Here is how she look with the new rear glass and I think i am in love with the new look. I will update with a race recap soon.

Some pictures form prep/ junk yard fun. Doner truck lived a good life. Ps u can fit most of a f150 in the bed of a short bed f250.

I forgot about this truck. I do agree with everyone that the OG look is the way to go and still my favorite body style! I just wish there were more options for glass. I really dont feel like making my own but maybe I will have to someday.
I'm going to look into who made the glass for Jet blue.

The front on Jet Blue was a Robby hood and the rear were custom from Mike McQueen https://mcqueenfiberglass.com/

I spent many years working/building Jet Blue while at Newline. In my opinion one of the best looking generations of F-150 to build, good seeing it brought up again all these years later.

*note, Robby hood came through Geiser Bros. Not sure if they are still available.
