2 Things, I need to get a picture of my truck, unfortunatly in it's current condition it could possibly make this list

The other thing, there is a LARGE conversion looking van that I have seen rolling around town over the past year (happened to see it today, and I thought of this thread immediatly) that is front doors with about enough van for a sleeper, then flatbed w/ DRW, toolboxes, and the best part, 2 6" mitre stacks (which happen to be BACKWARDS), that go from this low pro 5th wheel looking tow bed ABOVE the cab (probably 9' tall!). I just cant get over this thing and need to get a picture of it ASAP. maybe even more than one. Funniest part, is I am pretty sure it is a gasser!

Oh man the stacks are the best part of that thing! Not only are they non functional, they are HUGE (diameter AND height)!

I really need a picture of it, bad. Moreso, I need to get pictures of MY truck on here.

I want a mercadiese elcamino with the 5 cyl. diesle


Had a 300d in college shoed horses and woked cattle with it; give that poor thing a fit continously for about three years until @ 128 mph and a wet curve helped meet its demise . it was on heck of a ride which I wish to never to do again.

I bypassed the turbo dump on it and had i straight piped on the exhaust they put an indestructable tranny in them it was not uncommon for the Merc-a-diese to be cruising along @ 70mph+ and the shifter be snatched down into low and the back wheels would lock down and in the event of of a dirt road that was more fun than a barrel of drunk monkeys

It gets funnier - it's actually a Buick Century.

This gem could be yours for only $2500!

Nice. Must be the wheels off a Toyota dually. Ever seen one of those? I do double takes on those.

Well I went and talked to the owner of that Conversion van/truck thing, and it turns out its a 1990 Ferd econoline 350, though it is a custom model, somone on the aftermarket end manufactured it. And I also was amazed to see that the stacks actually worked, and it was not a gasser, it was a 7.3 with a banks turbo kit on it. Pictures are pending upload approval.
