I would be interested in a set depending on price for myself as well. I may even be interested in buying a set of the cad plans if you would be willing to sell them so that I can get them built locally for the northwest.
if you get a chance you should do a thread with a breakdown of that truck, that really is a cool project.. I like weird stuff like that. One of a kind for sure.
Hey John, there is a guy in the classifieds selling those exact wheels with some well worn xml's for 1500, he has been advertising for a loooong time so he will probably take less. I will find a link and post it for you.
a lot of mil stuff will have a steeper price do to novelty or collect-ability, civi stuff in the same likeness is almost always cheaper cause its all made in china anymore..:cookoo:

because an unloaded bobbed 5 ton with 5 ton front springs in the rear with beat the fillings out of your teeth. This truck they he is talking about is not mine but I build all of my 5 ton bobbers with deuce front springs and all of my deuces with trailer springs for this reason. However I do...
