Cool find, I saw that on the classifieds. You can send me the steering wheel and seat belts I like the porterbuilt plans. are you going to add some step side fenders/dually fenders? or.....? Crewcab?

step side fenders. Crewcab would be cool but I don't have the time or the place to do that at this point..

So COOL! Show us lot's of pics of the progress!!

[Rusbuilt]

Thanks, I'll start a build thread when I get into it.

[Rusbuilt]

Got the dual wheels back on today and took a pic of the spid.
I also looked it over for a little bit and the first things I need to do are;
1) get the tail lights and brake lights hooked up
2) install disc brakes on the front and get the rear breaks working
3) Clean it up!!

yeah and it surprisingly runs great! I have been reading a lot on the 5spd swap options and I am considering the nv4500 swap. And of corse change the rear end so I can drive at highway speeds.

[cubber]

I totally missed that its a 292. Thats awesome. I have done a ton of research on these inlines, so if you deecide too keep it I can help and loan you all the books everyone says to read. If you go another way, I would be happy to find a place for youto discard it lol

Lol thanks Matt! I think I'm gonna keep it for now, I just want to find a 5 speed to put behind it.

Cool truck! Did it spend some time as a tow truck? Kinda reminds me of one with the searchlights.

I think it was a dump truck. It still has a lot of the pto stuff on it. I know jwalk added the spot lights.
