EdsTowing Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 We needed to get a new "Shop Truck" and the one we intended on turned in to refurbish job for the customer so we were back on the look out. Eddie found this at a JJ Kane auction in Virginia. We took a chance not being able to inspect it prior but wanted to find something that lived in the south to avoid rust issues. Well we won the auction and Rob went on a 750 mi. R/T adventure to pick it up yesterday... Made for a long day... So it's a F250 Ext. Cab, 4wd w/a Gasser. We were pleased when it arrived and found it to be in great condition... She'll fit right in once we go through some modifications and drag it through the chrome garden....LoL 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdsTowing Posted October 28 Author Share Posted October 28 Got a chance to get it up in the air today and fortunately everything looks great... We removed the cap from it and gave it the truck a good cleaning. It has a Pull Out Tray in the bed which I'm going to leave in there... Next it gets the electronics updated, some tint & then wrapped. We have a fuel cell & pump going in it for off road diesel to fill the machines up in the winter. We always used our Emergency Response truck for it but that's going to a new home in Ohio. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdsTowing Posted November 9 Author Share Posted November 9 Installed the revised coolant bottle & battery tray in it the other day so we can have duel batteries... It also got a full service, tune up and all new coils/wires/plugs ect... Once it goes in to service, I don't want to have any problems. Got it back from the sign shop with her new dress on... I'm happy on how it turned out. It's down getting the windows tinted and back up camera installed now. We got the Off Road fuel tank & Pump painted to install in the bed so that will probably go in this week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdsTowing Posted yesterday at 01:30 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 01:30 AM We don't have the time to take this one apart so we had the body shop just shoot the frame & suspension to keep in nice through the winter... Kevin does a nice job with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
