Got the better of me today
Sick of chasing my tools SO took a bit of blitz time and finally built a mobile tool bench. Got the frame and top and back done today
Just have to get some drawers folded and mounted and should be a one stop tool shop

Came across this Ford today
No data plates and a lot of rust
Slight upgrade of powerplant and more than a few other mods

Default Looks like...
Looks like one of the old ADS sprayers which were mostly on F60S late production chassis.
Howard, don't get any ideas about putting this Clevo in your F15!

Finding a cab is the easy bit.
It would cost a fortune to get that truck here, but... It looks like a lot of FUN!

About 590 Kms for you H.
It would be a bit of fun though .Considerable Horsepower and revs improvement
Toyed with the idea of putting a 302 windsor in to one
Did not think a clevo would fit
Wouldnt like to have to change the spark plugs
