I'd be worried that the strength of the frame, axles, x-members, and components were compromised in the fire. Even warped?

Oh well...Im going to steal thoes axles if I come over tomorrow (technically today )

You lucky sob

Be sure you let the guys in the 73-79 forums know, you'll make a whole lick of em jealous

Not only that, your totally stealing my thunder! I'm gonna be selling my '04 this summer, and I'm looking for a F350/450 cab n' chassis to roll around in style. Either something like a 70's ex U-Hual truck, or a newer beat up truck and swap the cab to a 70's model. . .then throw a flat bed on the back

Take lots of pics, and are you going to keep that crane on there?

Great minds think alike! Need a slick 70's 5th wheel tow vehicle to eventually pull my other truck and a nice, spacious camper. All I'll need then is some good land ready for utility hook ups

to many oft - I have 3 trucks. The '75 250SC is mine. The blue/white '76 100 has a 390 donor,and needs trans work, rusty, fairly straight. The green/white '73 100 has a 351, 3-on-tree, bed rough but serviceable. It needs engine work and is for $ale or trade - it HAD a 302 but has a 351W with internal work. It quit on me 1 day and I parked it. There is a pair of 10" rims in the lot. My 250 needs a decent LWB - preferrably w/ dual tanks to go under the Ford canopy.

Great! Now when I do something similar it won't be original. . .thanks a lot man

That truck looks absolutely sick! How bad has it been trying to get it lined up on the frame? And have you gotten the motor running yet? And title/registration problems?

Keep it up! At this rate you can drive it to Bodatious
