PICTAFIEDESIGN F150 Luxury Centermount Build

[Pictafiedesign]

I bounce around a lot as you can tell had a bug up my ass to build the lightbar this weekend. 11 GGLighting CB60s for up top. It’s still not finished but it’s mocked up. Need to clip the top and bottom tubes then make brackets to the a pillars.

i bounce around a lot on my builds too. It works because if you get stuck with something... or want to think about it more.... just go work on something else in the meantime.

Plus, when i get a new part... i just want to try and get it on there quickly to see it too

Agreed with that! Keeps morale up I think, especially since I’m waiting on my damn box/pan brake for the interior. lol

Progress is progress! Looks badass. Crazy how much technology we’ve seen in lights and lightbars in the last decade.

Agreed, every little bit is a day closer to the dirt! I appreciate it. These things are crazy, having a drl in the light as well is pretty cool.

Such a big build. Doesn't look like you are too far off. When are you hoping to have it done by?

I was hoping may... but a few of the tools I need haven't shown up yet to get the interior paneled in. Still need to do electrical/plumbing (held up with the delay of my pan/metal brake) and mount the fiberglass. We will see, hopefully that means June it'll see dirt.

Made up some brackets and the lightbar finally holds itself up! Still need to finish cut the tubes.

Finished up the light bar and finished up the radiator and ac condenser

Warmed up enough in Michigan to roll it out of the garage and finally be able to step back from it to get an overall view. Took advantage while it was out and rearranged the garage so I can work a little better now.

Thanks dude! It's the party spec wheelbase! Hahaha 121.5"

Small update but, got the rear window frame back in and shortened about 5” so I can clear the shocks when I start panel work for the interior.

I'm just going to cut down my OEM rear glass. It's an easy one to adjust.

Well found a spot for the ac compressor (what a fuckin chore that was lol.) Left side of the block had a mounting hole I could use that puts it right in line with the rest of the pulleys.

New wheel/seat showed up so I had to redo the sides of the cage. You can see in this pic what the drivers side looked like and what it turned into on the passenger side.
