    Okay, what's the bad? Usually, if it sounds too good to be true, then...

    Not knocking what you've done, it looks incredible!

    Congratulations. Not surprised it sold for a lot more than listed...it looked easily like a $50,000 truck if not more. The cost for the diesel conversion alone could have been $15,000. Its nice to see the value of these machines staying up there....well the clean good working ones
