I will post pics of our progress on the OBS box truck we just bought.

So far this thing is EXTREMELY clean I've only found two small dents. Not bad for a 16yr old work truck:ford:

While doing some cleaning on it Saturday we found this in the glove box:ford:

All the original service manuals...



The coolest part the Original Window Sticker



This is cost without the box









We also where able to get all the wrap off:ford: Some friends of ours came over to help.







More pics to come as we get parts in for the truck

Re: Box Truck Build Up

didn't try to pull the stickers off themselves, around here you never see a commercial truck on a lot with signage on it.

While scavanging the net I found these

OBS dually Alcoas. They are in pretty rough shape but for $150 total for all 4 I couldn't pass up the deal.





Lil elbow grease and they shined up a bit





They are still rough but we are going to remedy that this weekend.

Re: Box Truck Build Up

damn that looks good!! jealous as hell on that find.. i was lucky and got all my original manuals with my 95. cool thing to have.
You know I found this thing by accident searching EBAY. It only had like 5hrs left and no bids and didn't show it was a PSDLOL

When I was looking I hadn't been on Ebay in like 3 weeks. It was weird.

I beleive the best part is the 4x4:D

Re: Box Truck Build Up

The wheels wouldn't polish. So next best thing....



You could of used an angle grinder with a buffing pad and used the green compound and they would of turned out like chrome. If they had any scratches or dings from rocks you use a unitise disc on an angle grinder before you polish them. I did some things on my truck with that process and they turned out amazing. I can get some pics for ya.
