Jim has had this vehicle on the road now for two years with no problems, and he finds it great fun to drive. (well there's not another one quite like it I'm sure!). He did all of the fabrication, welding, painting, wiring, etc., and like most good projects, it's never quite finished.

Begin with a standard IIb Forward Control.

Strip and refurbish the cab.

Add the rear tub, hardtop and sides from a Series 88 inch, and cut down the load bed.

With a few other items attended to, and a repaint, the first stage is complete.

A Series Marshall's ambulance rear body is obtained.

And added to the vehicle, finished and repainted.
