KBPI Radio's Metal Shop 7 - Studio Setup

KBPI Radio's Scoop made the trip to ATS Diesel's HQ today to get the streaming video/photo cameras set up. A handful of cameras were mounted around the build area and up-linked to KBPI's website server to allow the build to be followed online.
The build area studio is setting up.

According to the KBPI polling it looks like the engine going into the Metal Shop Truck will be a 12-Valve Cummins. Up for voting today on the KBPI website is the paint color and door handle style. Also up for decision is the option to either have the truck in long bed or short bed flavor. More updates coming soon!

  1. Well knowing that I have a snowballs chance is winning this thing... I'm thinking of buidling (more like have you guys build) one of these for me. I know there is a ton of stuff that will happen to this truck that I don't know about yet, so my question is regarding the cummins.

    What would it cost to drop the same cummins into a 78 f250? Rough numbers. I'm not going to show up tomorrow and hold anyone to a number that shows up here... Thanks!

  2. Jason- There are a lot of options when you get into a conversion. Best bet is to call 866-490-5572 and go over what all you would want done.
