I have thought about asking this question for a while because I am sure you guys have done some very interesting things. Myself I thought about some of the race cars, drag and round track we have built but probably a dump truck was the biggest thing. In the early 80's Dad bought two 70's ford tandem dump trucks one was complete with torn up rears the other was a cab, dump body, front axle with only one spring, and a set of rears. So I swapped rears and put the first one to work. These trucks had small v8 cats automatic transmissions and auxiliary transmissions. I had not long finished the first one when dad and my brother came in with an old cab over ford road tractor on the lowboy that they had to cut the trees down that had grown through the chassis to get it out of the woods. Dad says take everything out of that truck and fix the other one. It doesn't seem like much but this truck had 671 and a 10 speed. Long story short it took me several months in between keeping everything else running to put this truck together. In the end it was best truck we had for years. It worked so well that when the other truck broke a crankshaft I got to change it over as well. How about yall? Ron
