New Project truck

[700 sportsman]

Hey guys, I've been wanting to get a cummins for quite a while now and I won one on eBay last weeks and we went to look at it on Sunday. It is called a PSI aircraft tug and was used at military bases. This particular tug came from a Florida base and has some slight paint fading but has zero rust. The truck itself is 1990 dodge 350 with the 5.9l cummins turbo diesel with a 727 3 speed tranny and either a Dana 60 or 70 rear end with 7.29 gears. It is extremely short so I will either be stretching this frame or finding the rear portion or a frame with axle and all and joining the two. The best part of the truck is that it was a great deal and the motor has 1,000 original miles, and 115 hours.

Also it comes with a heavy duty military trailer as well, I thought about putting the bed of the trailer on as truck bed but that may look too armyish and it the sides are very short.
I'll be picking it up later this week, but here's a sneak preview:

Nice. Pretty easy to turn up the wick on the old mechanical diesels.

Cool!

These are the ones without rear suspension, right?
7.29 gears

No, they do have suspension. Just a pack of springs about 6" thick.

Yeh Scott, you can do quite a bit with them
