2007 Ford F550 4x4 Overland Build
The time has come to sell my converted F-550 overland truck! I bought the truck in April 2021 and have converted over the last ~1.5 years. Disclaimer: I'm not a professional but I did A TON of research and I am a mechanical engineer with multiple completed car projects so I'm not a newb either. No reason for selling, the purpose was the build for me, not in a hurry to sell.

History of the truck: It began it's life as a Bureau of Land Management HotShot (fire Transport) truck. It was used by the Ruby Mountain Hotshots in Nevada til about 2015 (from what I can tell). I bought it from auction, and picked it up from Elko, NV not running. The engine was torn down and diagnosed that a roller bearing/lifter failure. Decided to rebuild engine because the block looked good, it is studded, and the injectors tested good. Engine build was completed in Aug 2021 and I drove the truck from Boise, ID to SF Bay Area, CA
