    What to do with a 2.8L diesel truck motor left lying around.

    I'm looking at buying another Mitsi Truck to use its cab as a donor cab for my old horse truck. The trouble is I'll have all the running gear from the new truck left over.

    What would you do with a surplus 2.8L diesel truck with everything intact except the cab (mind you the rust ridden cab from the other truck would be available)?

    Go ahead inspire me!

    .... back in green and feeling great ....

    Might have to get creative with some welding gear

    Build a hot rod. Then do a skid.

    Personally I would build a logsplitter.

    Why the hell don't you just use the new truck, and find something to do with the old one?

    You should probably use the parts of the truck to.... build another truck!!

    I know, I'm so imaginative I think I could be an artist or some shit.
