It looks like it would make a great flat bed after cutting the main body off it, scrapper mobile...

Now you may wish you had kept more of the side panel on the drivers side. So how much weight have you removed so far? Are you serious about using it for your scrap truck. I might have prefered to have kept it intact so I could use it as a safe temporary storage and scrap vehicle. Mike.

I haven't scaled it yet but I'll give the total when it's done, this is as far as the scrap truck idea goes my F250 Super works good enough for now.
I'm only a part time scrapper but the money I make doing it is a nice supplemental income especially during these troubled times.

I got all the bolts holding the body to the frame removed today and then it started raining so I call it a day.
