Out with the old, in with the new! After having my 2007 Ford F150 since 2008 it was having issues. It was not a 4X4, however it worked for me. I'd hoped this would have lasted longer, however it had developed some major issues. The truck had exhaust manifold bolts snaping, creating a much...

While in my possession it will be taken care of, it's a important tool for my locksmith company. I don't think it's going anywhere as long as I'm above ground.

It's definitely unique, and well made. I'm pleased to have it, using it for a mobile workshop. :driver:

Wow, sounds like that they were unique at that time in history.

I've got the new 115V plug in the mail, found some extra extension cord length to make it safe. What I've learned from looking at other shelters is the door configuration is unique on mine. I don't see much offset doors with the out swing half doors. Maybe it's a key to the true manufacturer...

Thanks The tailgate was removed permanently, it's easier to climb inside the workshop than having a tailgate to hinder me. l thought about it and couldn't justify keeping it. I used nut inserts for a lot of things like the license plate, I used the nut inserts instead of regular nuts, a lot of...

It was lightened up a lot when I gutted it out, I was able to move it with ease. The parts that I removed, really weighed a ton, then after I reassembled it with the filler plates, electrial, I still could lift a corner up by myself. :-D

:beer: Thanks, I've got that on my list, and it is a concern to get it done ASAP. I've got a special electrical plug coming in, it's watertight, and then I'll fix the issue.

This is what 40 years locksmithing, safe work, fabricating will do to someone. By the time I figure it out I'm old. :)

More photos: So you can see how I have everything set up in the back. The door lock, deadbolt are my fabrication, as well as everything else on this project. I made sure everything is water tight, sealed, and its a really cool shop. :) :)

More photos: As you can see it's awesome! The insulation and heater keep it warm. Everything has a place.

Some finished work inside, the heater setup, some decorations, now I need to put my tools inside.

What a beast! I spent all day getting this in my truck, with no assistance. :cookoo: Recapp: After rebuilding a; insulated, "communications slide in shelter", made for the Army, from the 1950's, which took several weeks to complete the process. I completely gutting out the old...

Thanks that is very helpful. Thanks everyone here for your help in this shelter. :D:D:D

I posted it the first time here.

Can you give me a date of manufacturer, and who makes them.

More work on the interior.

I live in Meadow Lakes, near Wasilla, Alaska. It's a great place in the woods. I came to Alaska for my final place to reside, and due to the overwhelming response from the community, I have established a solid customer base, permanent clients, and I travel to Anchorage, Seward, Delta Junction...
