That truck is SHARP, very. I’ve said before that trucks are masculine items, and they should reflect that they’re built for work and to be tough. Having said that, there’s nothing sexier than a lady who drives a pickup, as long as she can handle it!
If you look at my stuff, I’m a fool for the extra lights and traffic advisor bars (some places require a some places require a permit) and horns, CB radios and who knows what. There’s a lot that’s available these days.
The Road Ranger:
The truck and frame were NOT modified, except for removing the big cross brace in the back. I replaced that with five or six smaller braces on the top of the C frame, and on the bottom of the C frame to make room for the “5th wheel” assembly. The third (3500# trailer) axle “floats.” The hitch assembly “5th wheel” pivots in the front, the leaf springs pivot in the front, and they are connected in the rear with shackles. I can back over a curb to the point where the wheels touch the fender and not lose traction on the drive axle.
The Missing Linc:
Finally, I put vintage top of the line CB radios above the rearview mirror in both of them, and fabricated a switch panel above the radio to control all the gizmos.
And don’t forget Scary Baby or your demon of choice wired into the brake lights
