Does anyone have the link to Ebay listing for the old refurbished antique welding truck. I believe the truck was somewhere in the 60's model it also had a flat bed and was a 4X4. I have been looking for these photos because I would like to begin undertaking the same type project. Also if any of you have one of these types trucks please post some photos of them as well. Thanks very much.

ibeweldingsum you are on the right track. The truck I am thinking of though was on old truck body put on a new truck frame with all the new truck amenities but with the old truck look and it was a flatbed welding truck. I believe there was a link in one of these Forum Topics to this truck I am talking about on Ebay. If anyone has this link or can remember which Topics it was in I would appreciate it. Thanks again for the help.

ibeweldingsum that is the truck! Thanks for the pic. Do you happen to know any details about it? Who owns it, what is it built on, etc.?
Parent - - By RioCampo (***) Date 10-05-2009 01:59
Seems like that truck had all the info posted somewhere on the net. It had all the updates of a new vehicle done to it.

Parent - - By shorthood2006 (****) Date 10-06-2009 02:44
does it run and drive?
Parent - By pypLynr (***) Date 10-06-2009 16:13
Yesir , it does . It will probly need a battery and tires , but it runs and dives . I'm going over there today , I'll take some pics of it .
Parent - By ibeweldingsum (***) Date 10-07-2009 07:23
When I looked at it the person who built it said it was built on a 1990's chassis. It has all the stuff on it a 1990's truck would have with a 1954 cab on it. kinda cool I thought.
overdrive tranny, air con, cruise, and all, oh yeah and 4X4 at that!! If I remember right they wanted like $6500 for truck, welder and all you see.
