A few years ago, if you wanted a Peterbilt pickup, you needed a lot of fabrication skills and loads of time. The finished conversions were really popular, but not everyone can take on a project of that magnitude which means Bob Suffern of Nashville, Tennessee is the man you want to see. His company, Lil Big Rigs, can set you up with a body kit to convert your long bed extended cab 2WD F-250 7.3 diesel Ford pickup (late 1980’s to early 1998 models) into a truck with Kenworth or Peterbilt big rig looks and pickup size.
These conversions have the proportions to really fool the eye until you see someone standing alongside, the prices are right and the tools and skills necessary are something most guys can handle. Pretty neat.
Prices start at $14,950.00 with various options available.

My Father always wanted a kenworth pickup for years, One like the older wide grille W900’s. We were looking into building one from scratch, or with the right pre assembled body kits. We were also thinking of building up a cat 3208 w/ turbo, and possibly a 10sp fuller trans to make it look and sound like a “little big rig”. any info you can give us would be greatly appreciated
Thank you,
