Thanks Ray....

It's taking me a long time, but I'm getting there. I figured, If I'm going to rebuild one, I just as well try to fix everything. I actually have a "model" that I'm going to build after my truck is done to look exactly like it (or at least close).

Yep, the cab is from a mid year 77 2wd and the frame is early 77 F250 highboy.

This is my workhorse, tow rig, plow truck. It plows in the winter and tows my 77 shortbed to the sand dunes in the summer, its ugly but very reliable. In a pinch I drove it 600 miles out of state in one weekend without a worry. Stopping every 160 miles for fuel got old fast though!
