I will have to admit .... Red & white Slicks are my favorite color

I like the stance (not a fan of lowered)

Looks to be a great driver !

Leeroy,
Your Slick looks GREAT! :notworthy:
I love the stance, the paint scheme and the wheels! :cheers:
Would you also share a pic of the front end, please?

Are you also considering to add to your 'to do yet' list the white F-O-R-D lettering on the tailgate? :2cents:

Question: What is the function of the amber light fixtures below the tail lights? :dontknow:

Thanks for the kind words, feels great to be driving it again although i had forgotten what they were like to drive frequently.....

the one i have hanging in my garage says "on the move"

Well spotted ice, that was the government from back in the 90's slogan. We now have these guys that do.... Well they don't do much, but they changed the number place slogan! :lol: I like the old one better.

BarnieTrk, yes I will add the white ford letters. I found a set ages ago that were well priced (and delivered to Australia) but I can't seem to find them anymore. When I find them I'll add it.
The amber lights on the bed are turn signal, ours don't flash the red tail light like yours do.

whop who Leeroy,

I'm certain you have a team of leprechauns in your garage....... you have just pulled another one out of the hat.

Is that artificial turf you have, mmmmm must be.

In between building good looking Slicks, a rear timber deck, a kitchen bench top, all that interstate business traveling, especially seeing how you manage to be working on all the public, school, Easter and Xmas breaks...

I do note however that the slick received Leeroy's personal touch, it's equipped with a lowline satcoms cma-2102 antenna, just to make you feel comfortable !!!!!

Hence the licence plate is well deserved, that's - 1 HI 5, :clap:

Well Leeroy if you get to working on shipping that bad boy to the States, you might get her here in time for Slickstock. Then I will have a ride from the airport!! :mrgreen:
the scary part will be driving 90 miles on the wrong side of the road..
It's a race.. Will hell freeze over or will JC finish his truck first. Stay tuned..
