FL80 Firetruck Conversion

[Camoyj]

Been slowly building a totter out of an old 1996 FL80 firetruck. It's an 8.3 Cummins w/ Allison 6spd. We geared it from a 6.14 to a 4.30 with an air locker. We built a the sleeper from 2x2 tubing. Trying to get it finished is the hard part.

Spent some time on the interior. Still have a few hundred hours to go.

Looking good so far!

Made a little more progress on the interior.

I pulled the bed off to paint it and cut the back wall of the truck. Now I can cut hole in the box and slide it back to paint back wall and roof of the truck.

Todays progress. I finished the lower stainless cap on the sides and the back. Capped up the rear door floor. I need to build some window plugs and add some sheet metal on the bottom of the cab cutout for the seal to mount to.

I made up some rear window fillers and put a support from roof to the floor.

Fab work on cab is done. Need to paint everything now.

Some more progress. Holes are cut, painted back of cab. Now it's going back together.

This project seems like it's never going to end! But there is light at end of tunnel.

 

[Camoyj]

We have color on it now. Can't wait to put it all together now.

 

[Camoyj]

Hard to believe it's the same truck now.

I got the rear panels made up.
