Hey guys, Im kind of nervous about sharing this...I think some of you will think its cool

and some of you are gonna think its gay:? but Im gonna go for it anyways, ill let yous be the judge.

this is my step fathers truck. His friend started building in the early 90s with the help of my step father, its a f-350 with a 460 5 speed, it has alot of custom sh!t done to it inlcuding custom air brushed paint job (this is like the 8th paint scheme), t-tops, suicide doors, tilt hood and the most recent addition is a full 4 link suspension with nitro shocks and sway bars the whole works and 49" irocs, 5:13 gears, done by http://www.tntconversions.com/ . Leo is an awesome fabricator and has done many awesome trucks and has even built full size monser trucks including thrasher.

My stepfathers friend, Craig, who is a pain in my as$ started up a website for my step father, although its more like an sale comerical for it :neutral: . As you can see he is a royal smart ***

, if you look in the tuff guy toy box youll see how he talks **** about my toyota and included his stupid as$ dodge with the "grab life by the horns" slogan...so gayyyyy and when you look at the pictures over the years ignore the "king Michael" **** that he is talking

or check it out on Leos page: http://www.tntconversions.com/Monster_mash.html

By all means this truck is a total show truck and I know that, Itll never see rocks or anything like that but it has won several awards up and down the east coast and everyone thinks its awesome at the local car show here at bald hill. So I think its cool, I know some of you will think its a complete waist of money to build something like this and not wheel it at all but it was built to be wheeled, it was built for shows. <- I know Im gonna get sh!t for that... o well

looks pretty sharp for a show truck, i like show trucks if there drivers know they drive show trucks. i hate it when people have show trucks and try to deffend them as if they were hard core wheelers.

1BadJeepBruiser · 01-03-2006, 03:48 PM

O no trust me its a show truck, It knows it place

sllimj · 01-03-2006, 03:55 PM

looks like there is plenty of Man Hours put into it.
Its not for me but I like the fact that someone can do it.

AdamF · 01-03-2006, 03:58 PM

I like it! I'd drive it!

polyophio · 01-03-2006, 04:10 PM

You guys need to go get that thing dirty. I know I would.

Not to be a d*ck or anything, but I think his is much better than yours. I mean, the paint, dump bed, and suspension are all better than yours. Leaf springs are old school.

Don't take offense, I just thought that the "not bad" "heres ours" comment was putting his truck down.

That is very true

BTW how do you get into yours? We are working a custom motorized step that its going to swing down from the cab, when in the up postion it kind of looks a lil bit like a regular nerf bar step set then it swings down so you can actually reach it with your feet.

crawlingfireguy · 01-04-2006, 08:45 AM

the steps are almost complete. They started out as Kodiak sidewinders, then Leo extended them to 18 inches and fabricated the step to look like a mini nerf bar. We mounted the drivers side on the pass side and the pass on the drivers so they will work with the suicide doors. The truck is almost complete and soonm I will post more pics. Getting rid of those silly leaf springs was the best idea. I took a curb at 20 mph and did not even feel it. with the leaf springs stacked and arched so much, the only suspension I had were the tires, now it rides awesome. The nitro shocks are unbelievable.

more pics to come!!!!!!

NorCal 2500HD · 01-04-2006, 01:02 PM

we have kodiaks that swing down...but they dont help that much....one foot on the tire..lift and kinda jump in......

microgoat · 01-04-2006, 02:42 PM

Put a snowplow on that thing and put it to work!

Hey guys Monster Mash is finally back from TNT CONVERSIONS and My step father snapped a few pics. Check it out

We just had the exhaust done on it, its sounds awesome now. We also got the frame all touched up where the old spring mounts were . We also mounted up some cool Hella lights off the brush guard just this weekend (not shown).

It rides and steers so much better now then it did, so hopefully we will have it out ALOT more.

I dont know if any of you guys go to bloomsburg PA for the truck shows but we should be at that one this summer with it.

later

rerock · 03-14-2006, 03:51 PM

TLTCrawlin · 03-14-2006, 03:57 PM
