guess one more build thread wont hurt lol
ive been buying several parts for this rig, now that my 87 is almost complete.
what i have:
a 2002 F350 4WD DRW truck, minus engine and trans.(vin has a scrap title only, cannot repair)
a 2001 F250 4WD SRW, 4" lift with a blown headgasket. and a rebuilt 4R100
a 97 7.3 PSD long block to build.
a 2002 F250 short bed
and a new set of DRW fenders that should arrive today.
the plan is to swap the 01 body on the 02 frame.
cut the back window panel off and weld the extra crew cab section of the 02 onto the 01.
extend the frame a bit, and run a short box DRW.
build the 97 7.3 w/ ceramic coated slugs
stud the heads
run a set of baby swamps
a GTP 38R
all on stock programming
no chip, no tuner.
after i get her together, shes going to a buddy for an air brush paint job.
most likely something aquatic, or that reflects the delta life i enjoy.
send her to another buddy to clear coat.
install my front and rear bumpers i have.
and hopefully have a rig that i can tow, and take on long trips with my kids that will last me 2 decades.
this is my last major diesel project! (maybe )
ill get some pics today after parts come in....
