Good deal on a Sprinter Box truck project

[Bob Foster]

All this truck needs is to have an outside skin, doors and bumper put on it.

This is a regular box truck skeleton which in my opinion is ideal for those or us that want to customize the openings anyways.

First remove the real lift gate and sell it.

Put a nice set of swing out doors (or a roll up) on the back and build a flip out/fold down rear bumper that acts as a step into the back. Next add a rollup larger door on the side or a man door with a frame mounted fold down step up to the roll up or fold out full steps into a man door.

Attach a rail mount propane tank / gas tank on drivers side frame rail. If you didn't want a side door then mount a tool box on the frame rail on the passenger side.

The price says buy it now or or best offer and my experience is that these trucks go below buy it now price. Look at the mileage on the truck.

8What is that a Ladwig wagon? I put wire mesh so he can't sneak between the supports. The the worst he can do is spit on you. :shock:

Very cool with possibilities

Unfortunate the worse model year you can buy

Why is that? That was the first year of the new body style. Fill us in please.

the first model year meeting the stricter diesel Emissions standards for 2008.


Fuel mileage also 15% less than pre models
