bought a truck!!

[aussie_f350]

after some searching and saving i found a truck that i was able to purchase. found on craigslist, i contacted the seller and made a deal. paid for it today so i got to wait for funds to clear and 6-8 weeks delivery.

anyways

so its a 460, c6, dana 60 and 44 front, interior is rough as is the body but its rust free.
supercabs were not available in Australia so it will be a unique truck here, plus i will make my money back on engine box and diffs if i wanted to, wait and see

That's sweet man...a good rig for anybody to have...you'll be the talk of the town for sure.

 

[aussie_f350]

Thanks guys, but rough but it will fix I'm sure

Awesome Andy, totally awesome truck!!!!

you'll really like the super cab!

 

[aussie_f350]

I honestly don't know? As far as originality goes they are worth nothing here. The cab, bed and front panels are rare in good condition especially with those trims so they are my main concern. I know you purist guys will hate this but I want the body, bed and front on a 99-02 super duty chassis with a 7.3 diesel engine.
I don't know what I will do but 460 worth 2k with c6 and transfer, diffs 1k and wheels 1k so it's worth considering?

That's rough? Fix some dents and good to go... Rough around here is much much worse than that... Nice find and deal!
