Hello everyone and thank you for taking time to read the story of the ODDBALL EXPRESS. Yes I call it the ODDBALL EXPRESS cuz it fits. Anyways I bought this truck back in sept of 2010.. It is a Goverment rebuild back in May 2008, and was fully reconditioned from head to toe. Has 575 miles when i got her. Here are a few upgrades the MAN gave it. Fully rust proofing the undercarriage and new HAWKER batteries and new THAWK tires and best of all ELECTRIC WIPERS, (a god send). If you ever get a chance to get electric, DO IT..... Ok PIC 1 is ODDBALL in my yard. PIC 2 and 3 are of her sitting in EASTOVER, Pics 4 and 5 are of the completley rebuilt engine.Only odd thing about her is they left the single piston compressor.... Pics 6 & 7 are of the interior. I will be adding a springer seat ( which i already have) later in the build for the passenger... Pic 8 is of the interior with new floors and window screens and a very heavy steel ladder.... Pic 9 is of the new gauge cluster which displays in green not red. Which i like

ok so we will start with the outer body. I wanted a different style of camo (ODD) and decided to paint it my self. I used rattle cans and have decided to repaint in the gallon form for better results... I have painted it more and I have more pics and will put them up tomorrow

Hey oddball, the truck looks good. What do you think about my new avatar? Chris is the taller one on the right.
