Wow...is it not cheaper to purchase a single rear axle road tractor or something similar that can be converted with a flat bed?
Yes, not as comfortable to drive. $163,000 for a pickup is something.

That is an astronomical amount to spend on a truck. But if it is he whats & can afford, more power to him.

Would like to see pictures of the finished product!

Yes insurance is available for the full amount but there are only a couple of companys that will insure it as it is called a grey import which means it is not built for the Australian market
The whole design modifications has to be approved by the Federal Goverment before they can actually sell it to you prior to registration
