    Can't believe you gave away one the best trucks to make one of the greatest traveliing work trucks ever. Sema Quality, with crane, welder, toolboxes, little sleeper and have to put alittle barbecue grill somewhere on it,😅maybe a hottub....

    I like your 78/79 F100/150? nice job with integrating the RAPTER interior in to it. By the sound you transfered the engine/transmission too.

    Oh the new crew cab I would put an airbag suspension, drop it down to the ground and make it a nice low ride cruiser and make it proudly Roloff bed so you can still use it as a vehicle for show vehicles or certain meets

    Turn that f600 into a towrig and put Powerstroke or Cummins in it I think that would be fun

  • @stephenshelton5724
    @stephenshelton5724 Рік тому +10

    Given the wheelbase and the fact that it’s an F600 I think a ramp truck is definitely a build to consider. It would make more sense than a flatbed. Rollback bed would also be an option to think about.

    • @FordEra
      @FordEra  Рік тому +5

      True rollback would be nice to have

      @FordEra not so much t.v. as jealousy. Like when he crashed at Roadkill Nights. The guys from Roadkill kept clowning on Richard about it. They would say "don't Richard that". I was like why clowning a guy for a wreck. We all wreck. He showed up to your event and tried to entertain people. Why be a dick to him? Jealousy is my guess. Because you can't really talk shit to Richard. It doesn't work. Look how stupid Jesse James looked trying to beef with him or Big Cheif. All were disappointed when their shit talking didn't bother Richard at all. The guy is cool. So what he isn't a driver or a builder. He is a car guy and a stand up guy. How many times has he bought something because he said he would. Never backed out. Even on a loss. That says a lot about someone. Anyways take care. Great channel.
