They would look good on the centurion along with a 4" lift....... I just have a feeling that obs f250 is a rusted out pile

I like the grenades better lol but I have a feeling those might get over played as well.

Im curious about your grill, What materials did you use for the mesh, and the trim around the mesh? and did you just use a stock grille and cut it out?

I'm thinking the frame is a little too crusty for my liking. I know for damn sure I wouldn't stick my 16' bumper pull behind it with 40 grand of cattle in it I would be worried about losing the entire hitch so I probably shouldn't stick my new 35' goose neck on it that would probably fold the truck in half lol! (I don't think the frame is that bad) It's not like I need this truck but I have always loved this configuration and I'm sure if it gets sold it will get run into the ground and not fixed but I just don't have the time or want to put that kind of money into a frame swap. Anyways I think I'm going to have to pass I've been contemplating it for a couple days and I think that's my final decision.

And to get my mind off that truck I'll post a picture of the centurion lol! This was coming back from checking that truck out. (Don't mind the foot of dust on it, it hadn't been driven in a week)

Sad to hear about that truck, man. Oh well! In the meantime, you've still got the other Super Duties, so at least you don't have to worry about not having anything strong enough to pull the Cattle Trailer and the Gooseneck.

That Centurion sure looks good as usual, btw.

Oh, and you mentioned wrapping the interior trim with that gloss black wood stuff. That sounds like interior eye candy to me. I personally got a black-ish color (similar to Ford's "Dark Side") to paint the interior trim and speaker grilles with. It turned out pretty nice. Primer, three coats of "dark side" and the coats of clear and it looks pretty darn good, if I do say so myself. I'll have to post a picture for you later. I'm at work on break right now, and in two minutes, my break is up. Lol!

Yup I'm not too upset as I don't need the truck but it's heart breaking to see it in the condition it's in. I didn't get to look in the interior as I went to look at it without the owners knowledge but the front seat seams a little jacked up as it is folded forward but it wasn't straight as you can see in that picture the headrest is not by the steering wheel like it should be. However the mechanic that had done the work on it was there and said the owner (female) just spent $2800 on a clutch and all new brakes and the transmission and engine were in great shape. Which is actually the reason I went back and forth on it for awhile. The underside of the cab was in surprisingly good shape seeing as how the frame is kind of iffy also the front fenders seemed by solid because i knocked on them pretty good and felt the backside.. I actually probably wanted it just to put all my other ideas I have had on another obs truck such as grille, headlights, bumpers, lights and all that good stuff. I already have one done up and wouldn't mind building another so the search will still continue.

I definitely wouldn't mind seeing some pictures of what you did to your interior. Mine should get done this weekend.
