welll......
that was a money loss. But, I ended making a business investment with my current vehicle, heres what it looked like when i bought it last april down south..
Well, It Looked like crap, the back was rusty, the front was plain. interior, bland. But it was making money immediately. It was a basic 2000/2007 F350 built from impounded/abandoned trucks from the Toronto Area. It had power locks, power windows, power seats, power mirrors, heated with signals and park lights in led. it had a 7.3 in it to replace the crappy 6.0l motor, Indash DVD with play station hook ups. It had a D&D wrecker body, with crappy incandessant tail/marker and magnetic lights and 58" MX7000 lightbar.
Anyway, the plain looking truck got to me after a few days, I cleaned the rust and began painting and accessorising. I removed the decals, added hood scoops (functional too, one leads to cold air intake)

to this:
I had also added crappy LED tail lights and some neat LED side marker lights
more painting:
I Built a 69" 16 strobe turboflash lightbar out of 4 other lights, real sharp looking.
I later painted my grill and added Whelen TIR3 Grill Strobes, put in my Federal Signal Viper S2 windsheild strobe and Whelen Talon LED strobes in other windows.
I finished some more painting (If you havent yet noticed, all colors are of my current/past vehicles)
I later got a neat idea to kill that dull interior... its a love hate thing like the gold paint, but so far everyone in town likes the interior work.
I painted the little things, my vents, lighters, PTO Pump switch and guage etc.
I added HID headlights, cost a bit, but worth it
I added chrome plates around the back lights, bought better Tail lights and added amber strobes
I also added a sunroof and custom smoked out white LED cab lights
I added a pushbar with Federal Signal Impaxx LED strobes to the side, I removed the foglights though, they were too much.
I added a second Viper strobe:
Also added LED park light bulbs, the truck is 100% LED now. more updates will come, got more stuff done, new light abr, the turbo flash died and I added a Siren, a Code 3 Undercover Siren, model 3050 lol
I bought a snowplow, tossed it on, just to make a few extra bucks. I finally got the siren hooked up ( a Code 3 Undercover sired model 30-50) so that big speaker on the pushbar actually does somethihg (pretty much for the air horn feature).

You're a tow truck driver? lol
