Really clean looking truck Troy. Did you buy it that way or have to do some extensive body work to get it looking that sharp?

Thanks Brandon. I bought the truck a couple years ago and the bodywork was done. It looks way better in pics then it does in person. Looks good from a distance. The guy I bought it from painted it in his garage and it was his first paint job so...yeah. I decided to do the Cummins swap but will be redoing some bodywork and then repainting it but plan to drive it a little first and get all the bugs worked out.

Nothing worse than death by PowerPoint, but it would be hilarious to just disrupt the entire webinar with the sound of some aggressive moaning throwing him off his train of thought.

Troy did you just have the Cummins laying around or choose it for reliability?

I chose it mainly for the simplicity sake. Only takes a couple wires to make it run. It is also cheap and easy to make power with. I actually bought a running, driving '95 Dodge truck and then shortened the frame, got rid of all the electronics and crap I didn't need and swapped my body onto that chassis. Worked out really well.
