Oh that makes more sense. I saw the AK and thought Arkansas..... I didn't think it snowed like that in Arkansas....... /face palm.


Great find! Take your time, decide what you want to do before you do it and enjoy.

im stoked i got a 2 car garage so im gonna have 2 builds going at the same time. it should be fun. this ones gonna be the recovery truck with a sweet flat bed. i have it all drew up. its gonna have boxes on the sides with toyota parts and ford parts (im putting a ford 289 in my other toy.) a box behind the cab with tools. its also going to have a headache rack with lights. its staying stock height with 31 inch mud tires.

Looks like you already have a starting point for a flatbed.

I look forward to reading about your build, sounds like engine rebuild time for starters!
