The garage that works on our International has been putting one together piece by piece for their road service vehicle. They buy everything used/off lease. They just got the cab (Ford F550) and utility body w/crane and the compressor tank back from their body shop and it looks awesome. Lots of chrome, lights and polished Alcoa rims. All of their trucks are metallic maroon but each one has different ghost elements in the paint work (flames, scallops, flags, this one has a checkered flag theme). I wish I could justify one!
