The Space between the cab and bed will be filled in by a toolbox that follows the bed lines. The batteries will also be housed in there

That's awsome. Is your intake piping copper? I think some nice beefy stacks poking up through the tool box between the cab and the bed would look killer.

I wish this was my truck. It belongs to a friend of mine. Yes the intake plumbing is 3" copper TIG welded together. The cooling lines for the air compressor and the air compressor pressure lines are also copper.



Other updates: Rear disc brake conversion using stock parts, It was too easy. Also are fabricating brake and fuel lines and mounts. And fabricating brake and clutch petals and their associated parts.

Hijack... . Dawna, that Ford crew is by far the coolest truck on your site! Excellent job. Should be really cool when it's all done.

That is tooooo sweet. I've got a '51 Chevy Panel truck in one ton. Same as the half ton but about 2+feet longer. I've been dreaming of doing the same conversion, even the 4x4 part. I've got a '81 chevy one ton dually frame that I'm going to drop it on. I'm going to keep the dually part and switch the front end to 4x4. . Mega tough!

I get re-inspired everytime I see things like this...
