New money pit

[AIFOX]

I had alot of fun in my fox but it was time to move on. Picked up this 95 Lightning 2 days ago from Oklahoma. Oxford white #939/2280. All stock and original minus exhaust with 200k miles on her and she runs like a champ! Plans are to just clean her up and keep it stock for now. MAYBE some small bolt-ons down the road. Need to find some fog lights and bed decals.

Filling up both tanks for the boring ride home



Cleaned up with tow hitchand sidesteps removed, rear bumper adjusted, new exhaust tips, basic tune up.

Always nice to see a clean, stock lightning. Everyone likes to fuck with them.

Nice! I don't consider a good looking , fully functional vehicle a money pit. Unlike the real money pits I've been blessed with in.my life time. Lifting the carpet to find holes and cracks or finding out that the car has been flooded or in a wreck or finding something strange welded together to hold parts in place. That's when it becomes a pit. I'm a disgruntled money pit owner. Can you tell? great purchase btw.

I dig it! I need me a Gen 1 lightning now.

Nice. I was tempted by that truck. I love F-series trucks on that body style.

The part number for the center caps is F3TZ-1130-F. If all you need for the driving lights are the lenses order them using NISSAN part number 999F1-AA003. They are exactly the same – just considerably cheaper.

I always wanted a 1st gen Lightning back in the day. I had a '94 F150 Flareside with the 351. Still love them every time I see 'em
