Another Newb

[RonMan]

Hello everyone,
Im Ronnie and I live in Southwest Texas. I joined about a week ago and have mostly been lurking. I own an early 99 F250 7.3 Crewcab King Ranch. Yup, I said King Ranch. Well Ok, conversion... but close. It is about 75% done. I still need a new carpet to match the KR floormats, the KR dash bezel, woodgrain door panels and a steering wheel. Im also doing a 05/06 front facia conversion. (just waiting on my headlight harness). Good to be here.

i see your brain is about to get picked to death
we to are looking to give our arizona beige 350 a few kr touches well actually ours will be the JR truck (Joann and Robert ranch est 2006) , my wife wrapped the a pillars in a leather , the gauge pillar is not doing well but its only a test. and the door switch panels, the beta test is holding up but on the wear areas well except for some reason the high temp contact cement it allowing it to pillow in the heat.
ahhh but beta testing is fun.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. Hey powerboatr, have you looked into Katzkins (sp?) ? I've heard they carry a material that is very similar to the King Ranch. They are quoting about $1000 for a crewcab. Good luck and have patience. It's taken about a year to find all the pieces I have so far.
