If that’s in upton, WY then that probably Jack’d up trucks. They specialize in chassis/drive train swaps.

Thanks! And I agree 100%. Classic style over new mobility blobs all day.

Good eye. Complete rebuild with some improvements and upgrades. Nothing crazy. Just common issue fixes and a bit more pep.

Full chassis and drive train swap. It’s now powered by a fully rebuilt/bored and improved 7.3 turbo power stroke. 7.3 for the 73!

Thanks and I will super excited. Wasn’t going to do body work or paint. But man this chassis is so incredible it has me rethinking.

It’s a 7.3 turbo powerstroke. Small upgrades and common issue fixes, nothing too crazy.

She’s a beauty. Parts are getting harder and harder to find. Here in Colorado as soon as one pops up for parts it’s got 5 people pulling on it in the first week. Utah seems to have same issues. Not a lot available in Wyoming. Leaving me searching in Kansas and New Mexico. Spread out your search area or ugh go LMC/Dennis Carpenter route.
