Yes we brought home a new Truck This week. Only 25 years old and still pulling like crazy. Ran up on a 1989 Ford F800 7.8 Diesel motor 10 Speed Road Ranger Tran's. 60" Standup sleeper that will be stripped and redone with seating along with a bed. 24.5 Alcoa Wheels. 10ft Hauler bed along with chrome 6" Stacks. Motor only has 10,000 miles on it. so motor is good for a long time. Strong and pulls like crazy not super fast at 72 MPH but does it fast. Thinking about putting 10th gear back up against the dash thus having an overdrive 10 Speed.
Figure with the $4000. I have in it. Put around $12,000 to $20,000 in it. Have a nice old hauler truck, that I can say I had the pleasure of turning into a nice truck. Will be giving it a paint job to match the camper. But after a few hours with a can of colorback the paint on it will do for a year or so.
When we picked it up.
After a few hours of rubbing the paint with colorback.
Will be taking the big Fuel tank off the back next week. Got it in with the deal and it has a new pump on it. So we can use to fuel the tractors with.
Looking forward to working on this old truck and turning it into something nice I hope. That or I have went over the deep end and lost my mind.
