Here it is

[Dieselguy123]

Well all, Here is my truck, its the combination of about 2 years and alot of hard work, but it will finally be getting primer sealer and paint in a few days. Its an 89' frame shortend 16.3" with a 94 f-350 cab, 84 6.9 donor motor and a zf 5, I bought a new set of american racing outlaw II Wheels for it and will be going on after the paint, I just always thought it would be kind of cool to have a heavy duty shortbox, so istead of just thinking about it I built one. It may not look like much to some people but I poured my heart and soul into this old truck and I am very happy with the way it turned out. Just though I would show you all where my questions were coming from. -Brad- T.C. Michigan.

Brad,

I can see the potential. It's going to be a sweet rig. It'd be nice on the plow if you ever decided to go that way.

Good luck and keep the pics coming.

I too have always thought a HD short box standard cab would be cool, It looks good to me but will be better when the paint and rims go on. What color are you planing on painting it?

It's a Moosestang without the fiberglass cap. Did you end up using a Bronco drive shaft? Looks about the right lenght.

sweet set up, keep us posted on progress. its great to see new life breathed into old iron

driving a long rig like mine can sometimes suck but it sure is nice to fit the family, dog and a load for a trip.

Wow, nice work.

 

[Dieselguy123]

The color is going to be a factory ford white, (oxford White), Yeah It will look good once the rims are on there, it is nice to be in the final stages of it, After I am finished here I am going to spray primer sealer on it, I will post a pic of it all one color tommarow. -Brad-

I would kinda like to see a heavy duty short bed dually...... What you have is really going to be something to be real proud of. Whats next???

 

[adrianspeeder]

I'm a sucker for a short bed, and always stop whenever I see an OBS reg cab short box F-150 or pre 88 chevy C/K-10 for sale. Throw in the ZF and a diesel? Can't beat it...

Not sure what will be next, I also thought about a short bed dually, I think that I will leave that up to someone else though , I was thinking about down the road putting a dana 60 up front but we'll have to see.-Brad-

 

[Dieselguy123]

ohh, by the way mel, Its not a bronco driveshaft......I tried one and it was about 6 inches to short so I had one made.-Brad-

 

[Agnem]

Then we know your six inches longer than a Bronco.

That looks really good!! I am also a sucker for shortbeds!! Hopefully my next truck will be a Superduty extra cab shortie. Short of doing what you have accomplished thats the best I can do.

 

[Dieselguy123]

well, tommarow its the day, its getting its three coats of ppg single stage, oxford white, Then it will just be a ton of time consuming small stuff like Intierior and extierior adds.....Not too much longer, I will try to get a pic up somtime this weekend. -Brad-
