Re: 3200 Napco 1/2 ton Conversion
Hey Bob:
Looks like its coming along. Nice shop you got there. When your truck is done, maybe you could rent out workspace for us in need.

Keep an eye out for the Napco stuff, I have seen some smokin good deals on stuff since I brought mine. It will not be HD stuff or get much in the way of muddin going but it should be fun and a little different. Check out this guys truck. He even has videos on youtube http://www.stovebolt.com/gallery/ada...el%201955.html

Re: 3200 Napco 1/2 ton Conversion
G&R
Thanks for the pics, that thing is awesome... and yes mine will be similar... love the spare tire look... Took some time off of it to focus on work stuff but now I need to get going again. Motor is the next big step. Need to get some machine work done on the small block and then we can get going.... Finished bending brake lines and now just need to clean them up and see if we have any leaks !!!!!

Same as you, longterm build. Just lowered the rear from 4inch heavy duty coils to 5 inch regular coils. Need to buy a welder so I can get myself into more trouble. LOL |

Re: 3200 Napco 1/2 ton Conversion
Hey 85, thanks for stopping by... not much new... I was in the middle of bending brake lines when I got side tracked by this...
Its a 24ft Campbell DayCruiser.... I discovered it had busted bulkheads which mushroomed into rebuilding the entire interior, and changing the color.... Hope to get back on the truck soon.
