I would hire you for plumbing work based solely on the name of your business, but the mileage charge would probably be pretty steep! Very clever and the Ambulance is icing on the cake!

1966 Scout 800 with a 1988 7.3 N/A ZF5 Dana 300 and 1977 Scout II Dana 44’s

still not legally road worthy but I do get to drive it around at least.

Was the windshield target practice?

 

[Kooper]

It’s on the list. Hopefully in two weeks it will get new glass and exhaust. Open manifolds are cool and all but I like to keep a low profile.

Does this count?

Absolutely, that counts! Nice little rig.

Hey everyone, I've been working on my 1984 F250 with the 6.9 IDI that I inherited from my great-grandfather who had bought it new from the dealership back in the day. I stumbled across this forum and I love how active it is so I had to make an account. Anyways figured I'd show you guys my truck and I look forward to learning as much as I can about these beasts!

Here's a link to a YOUTUBE video I just made of my 1990 F250 with 7.3 IDI and ZF5
I bought the truck as a fixer upper, put a Dana 60 under it, and then spent time on the cosmetics and details..... it turned out really nice! I sold it to a young guy in town, and he let me take it Saturday to take pictures and shoot some video of it. Let me know if you have any questions!

1993 F-250 purchased new for $25,000. It has 277,000 miles. It has towed a 3 ton travel trailer to and from Sinaloa Mexico 8 times, yarded out logs when we cleared this lot 22 years ago, and plowed snow. The body is a Reading I used for an oil burner business I had for a few years.
Maaco replaced the radiator support, front fenders, rear wheel arches and cab corners back in 2005 before painting it. The paint has held up well. The transmission was rebuilt in 2004, injectors and injector pump replaced (although it didn't really need it) 2,000 miles ago.
I've replaced the starter, water pump, mechanical life pump, alternator, power steering pump, wheels, brake pads and shoes, steering shaft, and radiator once... oh, and plenty of u joints on the rear shaft.
It will tow the travel trailer at 85 mph (wind and hills permitting) and I might try towing cross country with it again.
Thanks for looking!

Here is my rig. 1990 F350 Dually with 7.3 IDI and E4OD tranny with a 4.10 rear end. I have a long ways to get with my plans for it. Rebuilding the E4OD installing a heavy duty shift kit, eliminating the bed setting up a Hot Shot hauling design for my future 5th Wheel, installing new AC parts, install a electric radiator fan, plus many engine upgrades. Wish me luck!
