Hi guys,
I'm a new member here to these forums and look forward to picking your brains a little bit. I currently drive for a excavating outfit here in Sault, MI.
Here's a question for you guys. I have the opportunity to buy a 91 Kenworth t800 short nose for about $1200. It is a triaxle dump truck currently but I would like to get it and shorten it up about 4 feet and turn it into a semi. It has a 350hp cummins in it but it's missing the fuel tank, air tanks and the driver side headlight. My question is would it be worth it to pick it up and put a little coin into it. I knew the guy the drove it and he almost cried when they took it to the scrap yard for a quick buck. It has 213k miles on it. I have shortened up heavy truck before but I want it for the heavy duty frame and rear end
Thanks guys
