Hello,

I am new to this site and own a 1994 6.5 TD Reg. Cab, Long Box. I will post pics up tonight after work. It is in pretty poor condition as of right now, long story short i picked it up off my gf's grandmother (it was my gf grandpas truck) for 1k dollars. Put a lot of time into it and 25k miles later am still driving it. It is VERY rusty, has no working gp's (they are rotted in the heads to nubs), so it unfortunately see's starting fluid when i cant get her to start. However i am currently working on a build with a 599 block that has 90k original miles on it. I hope to have her all back together befor ehte ned of the summer. I have almost all new body panels for it also. It has been worked very hard all its life, from towing 6'' well casings everyday to plowing since it was new. I take care of her now, i get a lot of flack for spending so much time cleaning a rot box truck, but someday she will look like new again...

Sounds like you have a labor of love underway! You're at the right place, if you have any questions, there are lots of helpful people on here!

 

Tell me about it... My gf is really attached to this thing too, the grandfather died about 3 years ago from pancreatic cancer. So one kid bought the truck and it got repoed from him and when they got it back it had tons of issues, so one day i offered her 1k dollars for it, and she took it. I even towed it home for free using one of the companys dumptrucks and trailer....
