My '77 tank(er)

Hi gang,

Quick intro here....fell in love with the sound of 2 stroke diesels and after searching what to put one in I came across this site and a few pics of people converting medium duty trucks to dually pickups. So that is my plan.

Acquired a 77 Chevy C65 firetruck tanker single drive with a tag axle. The cab is near perfect for something of that vintage here in Ontario. Will get some pics when I get a chance. It just came home a couple weeks ago. Also found a similar vintage C60 single axle. I will need to swap leaf springs and mounts on my truck when I shorten it.

Plan is to shorten to a support a dually box. Swap in a 4-53 and maybe some paint if my spouse would ever come for a ride in it.

Need more time in the day!
