New to the forum

New to the forum, but not to square trucks. I've always wanted to build a standard cab dually, finally found one. Very rough, started life as a 350/4 speed/4.56 gear/single fuel tank truck. It was a basic truck, pull anything, short distance, next stop gas station. Now it's a 454 TBI, 465+205, dana 60 3.73 traclok, dana 70 3.73 powerlok, 85 5/4 ton military frame, cab and bed from Georgia, remaining sheet metal NOS, buckets, tilt, AC, PW&PL, cruise, 10K winch. And the 60K mile suburban, 454/400/3.73 14 bolt/trailering special/ original 454 truck but not original block. Thanks Ron



Sorry about the focus, don't know what happened?????

Not a truck, but I like it, alot. Ron
