my truck named Mr. Custer

 

Looks good what tire size are those, and are they tractor tires

 

31x15.50x 15's ditch witch tires they are awesome front ones are made by interco

 

Let's update this thread I started! Here's a more current pic of mine



And now with a custom Dana 80 ,40 spline rear steer axle

 

 

Vin says '76, grill says other wise. It does have a divorced transfer case, low pinion front diff. All that plus a snow plow AND hydraulic dump box!
Oh, did I mention headers? Only one side completely rotted out!
The not so good? The electrical under the hood is a rats nest, literally.
Apparently a packrat had moved in a chewed it up pretty bad. we'll see how it goes....

 

@Dasher400 real nice start to a Highboy work horse BTW those are my favorite grille inserts .. A plow brace for a highboy is hard to find these days

These work great for a highboy plow truck

 

How high of lift and how tall of tires?? Your truck is bada$$

 

Here is my '78. I have had it since November of '77.

 

My 76 F150 with a 390 in it. Right now is a daily driver but slowly working on it!

 

 

My multi colored frankentruck, daily driver. Working on bodywork now, but just ran into a problem with the steering.

 

78 351m 4 speed 37s

 

Here is my highboy work in progress. It has 33" tires with a 360, headers. Dana 60 rear, 44 front & 4 speed transmission. There is quite a bit of body rust but it appears to be isolated to a few areas in the wheel wells and cab corners. There is a parasitic battery drain that I haven't been able to chase down yet so I have to unhook the battery when it is parked for more than a day.

My hope is to tear it down in a few years (after the wife finishes school and I can build a garage). For now I just am trying to keep it on the road!

 

Great looking truck, to my eyes.
