Here we go again...

I am not sure I should even be posting this. Maybe it'll become a build thread or maybe not. Honestly I'm not sure if anybody really cares much. I went and picked up this 96 f350 eclipse sport truck cc from our ol buddy elcamino man.
It was quite a load for my lol 5k trailer even with no engine or trans. Clifford didn't have any issue like I would expect .

I am thinking a mostly just mild bolt on build with emphasis on sealing it up for dd duty and se pulling maybe.

Here it is anyway...

Wife despises the visor-color -duallie factors. I may leave it just to be a pain lol

I always hated the visor as well.

Maybe it will grow on me lol

I'm diggin the rig big time. It will be a bit before I get on the project like I would like. It will happen tho!
Thanks Glenn and Adam. Just have to come up with a name for it.

I'm undecided on mine, I'll see on this trip if I like it. My wife likes it so, you guessed it, it will probably stay.

I feel that. Only time will tell. Since it was part of the conversion package I tend to want to keep it. Not that it will change the value just me being weird.
