I have a short little build for you guys. This truck is called nasty business, and is owned by a friend of mine who brought this truck up from Tennessee. The idea behind this truck was to leave the outside ruff and update the chassis and drive line. The truck started life with a 235 inline six and 3 speed on the tree. It now sports a very healthy 454/700r4 with a 12 bolt posi rear. The chassis is the original frame, boxed and notched at the rear with Mustang ll based front suspension and four link rear. All this landed it with about a 5 inch ground clearance.
My part in this project was to handle all the metal work. for as nice as it was the bottom 8 inches of this thing was shot requiring new lower cab corners, rockers and step sills, and A pillars. The bottoms of the front fenders were also ruff and I smoothed the firewall. Fire wall and floor were painted up nice and the chassis was detailed and painted as well.
