Picked this F350 Camper special up a month ago.......... fixed the choke and some creative wiring and off we went! AC blowin cold and cruise works like a champ. Hope to make her earn that "Camper Special" title!

Looks pretty good up close too.... if you don't mind overspray and some qustionable rust bleeding through 
PO did a re-paint maybe 2-3 years ago color is really close a slight shade darker than the factory you can see in some spots but all in all okay. I really like the dark blue and white or Red and white. Definately like the 77-79 side body trim seems a bit more finished at front and back.
I wil check out Autofab thanks!!

Here is my Resto.
Doesnt look like much, but it was a complete frame off.
Every nut, bolt and rivet was replaced on the frame.
Every possible thing was either replaced or rebuilt.
It still needs a couple spots of rust repaired on the bed, and it needs painting, but if you look under the cab or at the frame you would be impressed.
