Default No More Fiberglass!

For my work truck at least. Did away with my 10 year old Bowie Galaxy chassis mount. This baby is bad to the bone as there was no skimping anywhere. There is a pull out drawer in the rear cabinets with a flip down face that houses a computer for taking digital radiographs. 3000 watt sine wave inverter...two cord reels and more. Built by Stonwell Truck bodies in Genoa New York. Work was fun today

Damn, Stick! That thing is so SWEET. I know CT surgeons who would load that baby up with his perfusionist and scrub team and be doing CABG/5 at the assisted living places around here. He could bill the entire proceedure under his practice's name.

Someone once said you can hide a five dollar bill from a surgeon by putting it in the patient's chart or a fiver from a radiologist by sticking it to the patient's forehead, BUT you can't hide a five dollar bill from a cardiologist!

Truly, a thing of beauty.

Now, what's it going to look like with the Seafari hooked up to the back end?

Chuck that thing is awesome!! Those lids fold up nice to keep the rain/sun off your head. Can't see in the pics . . . a little white awlgrip paint for roof might keep it cooler in the summer sun.

Strick, I know it's fiberglass, but, you can't mount that yamaha on the back of the old one in the shop. I think it will be way too stern heavy! And talk about drag....the hull's not a VDH!
No joke, that is an awesome body!

??? Roach Coach ???? I don't think soooo...

That be the badest horse ambulance I have ever seen!

Strick, may God bless your Dodge! Mine just turned 304,000
on the way back from Peanut Island, it never missed a beat.

Good luck with the new rig!!

See ya, Ken

Thanks fellas..it does look like the roach coach from a far and I'm going to start carrying tacos and burritos..figure I could take in an extra $50 per day to help offset fuel costs It is insulated with 1" foam throughout so it does not transfer heat to the interior. Temps have been in the high 90's yesterday and today and the inside stays very cool...the out side does get a little warm however. Getting a little better fuel economy with the Dodge as compared to the Ford. The Ford has about 296K on it and it was a great truck but it was time to retire it. Have not been on the water on a boat since late November! Work is slowing a bit so hopefully I'll get too be on a SeaCraft soon.
