71 supercab f250 diesel 4x4

Post by Whateverman »

Wish I'd had a camera,this truck was coolness personified,and the owner was kinda shocked when i wandered up and asked him about it,but was kind enough to let me quickly check it out.
The guy runs a welding company somewhere up island here
He took a 79 super cab and re-skinned the doors,71 front sheetmetal etc. & box, and put em on an early 90's dodge 3/4 ton 4x4 cummins chassis...said he had to fab a few body mounts and stuff,but it was pretty easy compared to some of his othe r projects..super clean..yeah i need to keep a camera handy...
- still got my first first car 20+yrs later : 69 f100 sorta kinda pretending its a Mercury M100 w/a 70 f350 sport custom cab (factory buckets) 67 grille with 69 ranger cooneyes 68 merc box and hood,some supercool fiberglass fenders i scored way back when, 76 f150 disc brake frontend..currently running a 90 5.0HO 4bbl/c4 auto & 3.50 posi...originally a 360/c6 f100 Ranger with dealer added towpack (incl. kelsey hays trailer brake),boxside toolbox,behind the seat stowage & belly tank...only original parts left on 'er are the frame,rear end,rear springs,and rear bumper...

Interesting execution. Most people run from that Dodge 4x4 chassis.
