Thanks mate. Got her out today. The truck, not my daughter. Solid. Was just on my lunch and catching up on the forum.

 

 

Nice looking set up there, Reg. That looks like a serious chipper.

Decent sized engine on the ford as well.

Truck manufacturers over here seem to put the bare minimum in everything.

The constant discussion here of one motor to do/cover all jobs. That truck with chip box and tipper would do it. Just need bigger roads, wider driveways and cheaper diesel.

Reg you should drive a Prius.

Think about the planet.

Man.

We built this truck as a one off job for a good customer which included re-fabricating the floor supports due to rust fitting a 5 mm alloy floor, replacing the steel drop sides for alloy, making a alloy box at the front plus a alloy door each side, roof panel ladder rack platform, headboard panel with air vent behind, removable cross bar on the back at the top, replaced the steel drop tailgate for a alloy tailgate which swings both ways!, we also fitted 12v power points to the rear and front to plug in beacons as needed, we then repainted the sides and the TW150 green, Amber flashing lights were fitted to the rear of the chipper including led strips to the front and rear of the mudguards (white & red)

To assist reversing in the dark!

 

This was done a couple of years ago

 

We have just been asked to do a transit crew-cab tipper by another good customer I'll post detail when we start!!

Ive got the same chipper and mines just as shabby, what paint did you use? Did you shot blast it or just rub it down?

[WeFixIt]

It was blasted etched primed, coated wth Shultz shone chip which the bonnet was rubbed down again to gain a smoother finish then it was sprayed with 2pak paint as it gives you a harder wearing finish with the a long lasting shine.
