I just joined, I will be leaning on you all quite a bit. Tired one night and bid on a 30 footer at a local auction.... never intended to win the thing...

Good bones, strong 400, ford 9" with a 4 link setup, some other cool stuff.

the rest is a mess. Needs cab corners, rockers, the rest of the cab is great. The box is a mess to say the least.

I have best friends who are body men and painters, so I should be able to navigat that.

I am pretty good with mechanics.

anyway I will post pics of the current POS and maybe you can help me with my vision of what I think it can be.

I will post pics soon. Thanks for letting me join
