Still haven't got the Truck back from the mechanic, but here are some cad drawings I've been working on over the last year.
Initially started out as a ford transit van build, had a van on order for over a year, and Ford simply stopped selling transits to Australia. Not a single one.
Flipped the idea to a truck, and 2 weeks later had this one on hold from 3000km away, deposit paid.
Seller was an absolute dude. Really top guy.
I got my truck driving licence two days prior to flying up to queensland to pick the truck up, so quite a lot of things went right in order to make this build a reality.
First two renders are the transit van plan,
last two renders are the plan for the truck. Wish me luck!!!
