Here is a jconcepts 93 f250 monster truck body done for a quick mock up. I really like the looks of it and I may just keep it as I have a long bed as well

Nice!! That's the way to build it. The way you want it to look and handle. Can't wait to see what you come up with.
That's a cool body. Definitely keep the long bed for sure. Just need to make/get a tool box for the bed.

I'd have a pretty hard time finding a Ford Transit Connect body....no vanity build for me. 
You think that's difficult to find, try finding a Pontiac Aztec body!I'd have a pretty hard time finding a Ford Transit Connect body....no vanity build for me.

Not sure I'm keeping the tool box as of now. But I like the idea. Could be money to be made for that in the futureNice!! That's the way to build it. The way you want it to look and handle. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

Oh ime sure people always looking for a scale tool box. For their scale pick ups. I would for you or a cab for the back. That can be added or removed.Not sure I'm keeping the tool box as of now. But I like the idea. Could be money to be made for that in the future

Everything has been on hiatus as of late as I took a vacation to Phoenix for a wedding and to visit a cousin I haven't seen in 20 years. On my way home I stopped and dragged my f150 home so I've been focused on that not sure when rc will resume but I'm going to focus on my f150. I've owned it for over 2 years and it's finally time to get it back on the road.

Spark plugs?
Certain year fords the back spark plugs are a b to change. I love the truck, but those mirrors need moved. I actually wouldnt mind an obs non turbo diesel.

Very cool man. It's a big project t thats for sure. And even better that you have the bosses blessing
I saved it so I can check it out for time to time. Thanks for the link. Definitely wouldn't get rid of the stock tires that's for sure. I just love it when other people. Always tell people what's wrong or what needs to be done.. when no body asked for any advice or help.

As you tell them you basically been working on cars your whole life... people..... its going to be good new tank lines. The manual would be a smart choice I miss my stick.

Least you radiator is showing good signs. 9yrs and still green impressive

My dad was impressed as well. Then he said I bet the other half of it was sitting on the cylinders. Not likely as it ran great when parked 9 years ago. Only reason it was parked was because the transfer case went out of it. Having the bosses blessing has helped tremendously. Although the more I do to my truck I have to do more to hersVery cool man.

Just got small update on my f150. Got one of the wiring harnesses off two of the four front shocks radiator condenser a/c compressor door mirrors and the Headliner retaining trim off. I did find a manual shift transfer case in the junkyard for a good price so I snapped that up. I'm going slow and taking my time as I buy parts as I can afford them I will be selling some of my r/c related stuff to raise the funds to buy parts for my truck. Let me know if you are interested in something
