Sure is ugly, but I wish I had it. The C****y power really is a turnoff in a Ford specialty vehicle.

That must have been an enormous job to get such huge panels straight! It's certainly unique!

Unique for sure. Nothing I would want though. Wrong drivetrain for that sort of money.

All that money spent and the wiper arm/blade doesn't fit worth a hoot. Musta run out of money before he could find something that would fit better.

How do those pedals work? Is that the stock arrangement? It looks like I would have to ride side-saddle, and get my feet trimmed

if the cab is from a coe then the pedals would be in the right place. I think he put a coe cab on the panel truck ...

The amount of work must have been tremendous and looks well done, my only problem is the widened front fenders to cover the wider track width of the frame. Makes the front view look like the Chesire Cat from Alice in Wonderland, all grin!

I was looking/studying the pedal set up and what was done to mate the Panel to a COE. The pedal set up scares me. I have a COE cab here and the pedal location is more comfortable.

If I were doing the conversion, I'd section the bottom half of the COE cab (half of the firewall, hinge pillar, rocker panels and floor) to the Panel cab.
