Greetings from Bellingham, WA

Hi everyone. Thanks for all your warm welcomes when I posted a few days ago. People asked me about pics so here you go (and yes, ctb, it is a bit of a beast). It's a 2003 e550 7.3L turbo powerstroke, 4x4 Quigley. Believe it or not it has just over 4000 miles on it. It was an FBI crime scene/surveillance vehicle so I'm sure it has a lot of engine time on it.

I bought it last year but haven't done much with it since my first priority is to go over the mechanics and underbody with a fine toothed comb before I sink a lot of money into the interior. That said, I'll have lots of questions about DYI work inside and out. One of my first projects will be figuring out how to get it lifted a bit. The rear definitely sags but it's overall clearance for a 4x4 is a bit strange.

Lot of really nice stuff came with that purchase kmandu - I like that security light on the extension pole mounted neatly by the drivers rear taillight. I also think you lucked out with that interior...add what you want to suit your needs will be relatively simple with that interior configuration. Certainly looks well kept (baring that wiring spaghetti)
Not that you need it, but throw a CCV Pop-Top on it and you'd have a 10ft ceiling - that, or a platform on the top that would serve as a porch.
***Will be a cool DIY Thread to follow as you progress.
