how many companies took these trucks and "did their thing" with them? mine is a MarkIII
im assuming each separate company that did this had a "theme" they used as at least a base line of what they did with them??

MarkIII seems to be lots of mahogany and leather, body molding, fat tire/rims, and "limo lighting" in the cab from what ive been able to gather.....lol, a city truck as my dad puts it

what did the centurion guys do to them ??

The centurion trucks started life as a single cab short box. Centurion extended the frame and built the crew cab. Then on mine at least it has wood grain all around the interior. Centurion also made a 4 door bronco that was essentially an early expedition.

oohh wow !
so that is a strait up custom build...i didn't even realize it wasn't factory like that, now i think it is even sweeter then i did !

not sure if yours is mahogany wood or not, but if you get the itch to spruce it up send me a message, ive been messing with old boats a long time and can show you how to make it sparkle like no ones business !

Mike, you should post some pics of the welds in the frame. It's interesting to see how Centurion did the conversion.

The next time I am under it I will take pics and post them for you. It is very clear where the frame was cut and extended.

My Centurion truck came from the ford plant as a crew cab. It is a '94 F350 XLT 4x2 CC 7.3L Factory Turbo. All that was added was the running boards w/ running lights, Eagle alloy rims, CB, cab extension, windshield visor, Cab marker lights, interior wood trim, wood center over head that runs the length of the cab, aftermarket front bucket seats and custom paint. It also has power rear windows. There should be a picture of it in my profile. I just don't know how to post a pic of it in threads.

Right. I guess I should have specified. You could get the 3/4 ton and 1 ton trucks in crew cab configuration but the 1/2 ton is a complete custom. The bronco is also a complete custom.
