| K100 aerodyne (the tall one, not a flat roof), 3406E or N14+,13sp, dual straights and some lights and chrome, but not too much. On the inside, have to do something, I never much liked the old KW interiors (at least in the COEs). Would even consider a 362, similar specs (of course, it would be a flattop). And not crazy long (like the show COE's), what's the point of having a COE if it's got a 260" wheelbase? Sure it looks cool and has better weight distribution, but it ain't as useful as a short one. |

| I considered 3 different one's. An older k-100 areodyne, A Ford cl-9000 with the stretched sleeper (110 inch I think), or a kw bullnose but since I know were a k100 is I'll pick that one. It has a pretty new cat motor in it so I don't think I'd need to mess with that and I'm pretty sure it has a 15 speed trans aswell as a two stage jake. I'd switch the rectangle headlights with double round's, I'd wanna put a areodyne roof on it since it's a flat top now, A "T" top would be added, I'd put polished aluminum wheels up front and steelies out back that would be painted to match the rest of the truck which would be painted like a 70 somethin' k100. Inside I'd have one of those old glittered steering wheels with matching switches and upolstery. I'd also put a water bed, tv and two lava lamps in it.(as you can see I've thought this truck through). And far as plans go, how could you have a truck this cool and not work it? |

I'd just like to see the size of the straps that are gonna hold that water bed in place when you tilt the cab up for maintenance. Curious what you are gonna attach them to. Hope the lightweight aluminum structure of the cab you choose is in really good shape. If not, you are gonna have a waterbed crashing out through your windshield when you tilt it. |
