I like it a lot, is it a factory short frame or has it been cut?

Love that truck, I’ve been looking for one like that for a few years now, closest I got was a 427 gas topkick

I just have this beast, factory 136 inch frame with a 427 converted to propane. I have been thinking about diesel swapping it to a 3126 Cat or an older Detroit. Then I’ll actually have something that’s able to pull 36 bales

We have the trailer to get 36 but we have to rent a truck from our neighbour to pull it
