Project Update

Just giving you guys a little update on the '77 project Ive been working on. A little background: I'm putting a '77 supercab on an '89 F350 frame with a 7.3. Latest job is lengthening the frame to accommodate the supercab and longbox
Heres the frame as it sits today, almost done with it

A little better shot of the new section from a '92 F450

Heres the cab test fitted on the frame before I cut it up to extend it. I like the way it sits, cant wait for it to be done

NICE! Looks good to me! :P

I like the idea behind what you're doing. It's always impressive to see something old and new combined to make a "hybrid" vehicle as I call them.

Btw, I like your suspension system to get the cab on the frame haha! Nice 1-man attempt, and it worked!

Yup, gonna keep the dually wheels. They should stick out 2 1/2" on each side of the bed. It should give it that mean look that I like
