Neat idea: Let's all have some fun with this. My intentions now are to chop the cab firewall and floorboads to accomodate it. Just leave the truck as an ordinary work appearance on the outside. You guys ingenuity may take me in any direction. Will be asking opinions on type of bed to build or use later on. Will sure have to add some weight on the rear axle some how. Maybe have to add some airbags in the front coils, depending on how low the weight mashes the stock springs down. End result being a dependable, drivable old truck with focus on engine, not external.
