New Guy Intro

Hey, I'm Nelson, retired from regular work but not work! Plenty of honey does and lots of traveling, I reload for my guns and my wife has guns also, so our home is safe. My son served in the Navy and is now safely home!!!
I lost my 2008 F350 in a barn fire in 2019, while I was working on removing the blown 6.4L, I have 126,000 mile on the pieces of s**t! I had purchased a 2006 2500 5.9L Crewcab dodge for the donor engine 38,000 miles on it. I just purchased a 2010 F250 CCSB with a blown (is there any other) 6.4L to build my Fummins. Been ordering parts for months to decrease the money hits so most parts are here and I will fabricate most of what else I need. hoping this to be a father son project! Thanks for your time and when I start I will post pics before beginning and then throughout the conversion..

Welcome to FTE. We normally don't bash Fords here. Event their errors. But your project sounds interesting, if not expensive.

Don't forget to join your Colorado state chapter too.
