Picked up a 250 CC short box a couple years ago. Completely taken apart. PO ran out of money. PO has done a lot of metal repair already and primed. Truck has a 390, divorce TC. Front doors are ok, back doors need a little work. Extra front doors and hoods came with truck. Box is in workable condition.
My plans,
Put body on a 06 F350 frame.
95 cummins 47RH and TC
Gear vendor
4 link with Air suspension
Super duty Seats
Air bags and 4 link suspension installed on super duty frame, this pic is not the final fitting. Edges have been trimmed and welded.
Gear vendor on the back of the TC. Gas tank is going to be an issue when the frame is shortened.
Removal of cab off 70 frame.
Try set the cab to make room for ic and radiator.
Setting box and trying to get all the lines straight so I can start to to fab up new cab mounts.
Looking for ideas and suggestions on box.
Here is what I am contemplating,
If I was to extend the box sides forward 8" to fill in the gab, I could then have a slip tank installed and add 40-50 gallons of additional fuel. This would solve the tank and Gear Vendor issue, plus the frame wouldn't have to be shortened. (Frame alteration always a strength issue)
Not sure how this will look in the end, for sure not stock looking, but how many people other than guys on here would notice 8". The truck is going to be far from stock under the sheet metal.
