She isn't very original and she's missing a couple cylinders, but she's a real work horse.

Can't lie - I've really started to love this truck. The perfect tow vehicle, IMHO. Parents borrowed it to tow their LQ horse trailer and now they're looking at trading in their Super Duty ha.

I've always wanted to do a build like this. A lowered, shop truck build would be so much fun.
That's how it came from the factory. Corvette of trucks at the time .380hp 6.0 LS. It was dying to be supercharged. But it didn't happen.

I bought this one from the insurance company totaled. But it still had a clean blue title. (Don't ask me how). The front end was wiped. Just short of suspension, frame and engine damage.

Bought a donor truck at auction for most of the common truck parts. The rest is history. The SS replacement parts were VERY pricey.

The SS had been a pampered truck with 32k easy miles before he messed it up.

Here is another pic of my 06 Tundra, crew cab, 4x4 with a small lift on it. Also installed a set of Doug Thorley headers years ago. Been a great truck.

TKO 600 five speed transmission backed by a 9 inch nodular cased 31 spline 4 pinion billet trac-loc . 3 inch stainless exhaust done existing NASCAR style out the side of the lower bed as there wasn’t any room over the Linked rear. Wilwood discs all around and upgraded interior to the first year” Ranger “ . Which Ford installed mustang bucket seats and a 64 Falcon sprint console in the Ranger that year .

Getting the job done is what old trucks were made for :)

They not be as powerful as the new ones, but mines paid for and I still get there....most of the time.
