So I finally am at a point where I can share the project I have been working on. I call it an "Ace and a Half" because its rated for about 3,000 lb weight capacity. Started out as an RV, coach part was completely trashed from 2 years of roof leaking, soooooooooo I picked it up for a song and got to work. Stripped the coach and sold what I could. Bought a cab back from Casey's truck salvage in Buffalo NY, and the best part, added a bed from a 923 that Doghead and I parted out. Got the first coat of paint on today now that the weather is broken here in NY. Still got some details to close off, but its moving along. Best part about the truck is that it came with a 460 Gas and AOD tranny both brand new from Ford with only 5k miles on them and it runs absolutely new. The whole truck only has 69k on the clock. Best thing is, with all the work done to it, I'll only have about 1500 bucks into the project. I went with the 383 green as I had a bunch here, and well, the truck is half-military, so why not. Still debating on adding the black and brown accents. What do you guys think?
