well here it is... dont know what to call it excatly here is the bad it had a d 60 straight axle but now a d44 the kid I bought it from(waited 5 years) bought it with no axles he put the d60 rear and d 44 front in it... was a diesel and will be a diesel again just dont know which kind (cummings or 7.3) but it will be turbo...debating on going back auto or stick....

 

That looks alot like the Centurian. i googled Rimco, there are several business's with that name, but I'd bet that it's the Rim/Wheel distributer. Couldn't get the web sight to give me a location, at www.gorimco.com
was board.
Well looks like it's time to start some breakfast, I'm hungary.

Looks cool! Should be a fun project for you. Is the front end just sitting on it and that's why it looks like that?

Not to be insulting, but there's no "G" in Cummins diesel. Sorry, one of my pet peeves. Kinda like saying Elderbrock. I don't even Like Vic Edelbrock, but I at least pronounce his name correctly.

Sorry for the rant. Good luck with the build and keep us posted!

 

yeah front end just setting on there...its not a Centurian cause it dont have no bronco top and when you look at the top it dont have the ridge like a bronco conversion...

it looks like a 4 door they added almost another 4 door back because it is longer than a ext cab.

im thinking of adding the side glass from a 84-87 back there to make it not look so dorky....would love to have a d60 for the front but you might as well kiss 1200 bucks goodbye...

I have to finish my other project first (a chevy)but it will be running ford axles under it..

ohh earthquake you be correcting me alot then

 

That's a way cool project. Any pics of the Shivalay? We won't tell 77&79 F250 if you post them. My dent is my first F-word vehicle and I just got it a year ago.

 

thats one of those companies that buys crew cab trucks and extends them... its likely a one-off truck for a buyer, being rimco.... they look really good when they are done right, otherwise they tend to sag in teh middle.... do it right and youll have a real eye catcher!

 

ive done soem web searching, can you post he spec of the trk, date, engine, there should be another nameplate somewhere explaining hte company tha built he truck, im brain locked on finding out more about his truck.... dont ask why, i have issues, LMAO

 

yeah ill look sunday... here is what I can tell u about it it does have a sticker on the back door where it was ordered as a incomplete vehicle..

it was a factory d 60 f350 straight axle with diesel option and od tranny...

now for the weird part they added a bigger than ext cab to the back of the 4 door but the shortend the bed ....

as i look at the frame it seems they just ordered a 4 door lwb and made the body to fit no frame work the space from the start of the bed to the wheel is maybe a foot...

i was thinking of finding someone who could carfax it maybe get lucky i would like to see a pic of it in its glory days..

im wanting to make this nice again so i can quit driving a suburban..

the engine option right now looks like it will go back to a 6.9/7.3 cheeper and easier to find but I would love to do a cummins swap Ive got the nv4500 for it was going to put in my suburban with ford axles...

will try to get u guys some better pics

 

Ah come on now I am only joking when I bust on someone for posting chebby pictures on a ford truck site.

I think I will go to a camaro site and post some Mustang pics and see how that goes.....

Looks like a cool rig no matter what is/was/was suppose to be, keep us posted on your progress.

 

I done did that this Spring when I finished the convertible, they were none too happy. I did warn them there were Ford pics and no Chevy pics...lol. For some reason, the guys at Camaros.net didn't want to see pics of a 70 Mustang convertible on their site.

 

Now if you put a hot babe in a itsy bitsy bikini, no one would have noticed it was a 'Stang.

 

Unfortunately, I don't know any, I'm a mid 40's old married grandpa. My extent of seeing hotties is the occasional one might come over to swim with my wife or with the manchild's girlfriend.

 

That's sad...

While we were out on the river a couple of weeks ago, my middle son and I got flashed by a party goer and the poor boy missed it. Man was he grumpy...

 

On an entirely unrelated note, Miss Shelby was riding shotgun somewhere with her mother when they saw a newer Camaro. The word "Camaro" is written in a rather challenging script. Shelby asked her mom what a "Camard" was.



The girl bleeds Ford Blue.

 

That's not bad...

My 14 year old keeps referring to the Durango as a Dorito.
