[QUOTE="scriced, post: 13128703, member: 37453"] Good to know that ! The company in Cali was most probably Full Effect. Bill Thomas was the owner of the company, first located in Upland then San Bernadino, CA. Only 4 of the Full Effect SuperCab conversions are known to currently exist. The yellow one, number 0 or the prototype as my wife likes to call it, # 1 is in Louisiana, #13 is in the Bay area of California, and # 15 is in western Washington. It seems most all the conversions were '93 models. Full Effect would do an owner's existing Lightning or buy one new and do the conversion. Only # 15 is a '94 truck. # 15 is the last known truck to be converted. # 1 was originally a black truck. A guy out of Kentucky bought # 1 out of Florida, went completely though it and changed the color to white. Our '94 CrewCab L is a '94 but interestingly the rear doors have the body reveal line near the bottom suggesting it was a '95 cab that was ordered from Ford for the conversion. Our white '94 SuperCab conversion is not a Full Effect conversion, but done mostly the same way Full Effect did them. The original owner had the truck done locally in eastern Tennessee in 2000. Wished you had more info on the black one in Hawaii but know how things go as years pass by. I've seen a picture of a red one a few years ago. Don't even know how many of each color were converted, but that would depend on the customer. # 13 is painted in Ford's Grabber Blue. It was raced in the 1995 edition of the Nevada 100. Our yellow cab was raced in the 1994 edition of the same race winning in it's entered class, that being the 115 MPH class. Both trucks were driven by the same driver; T.J. Clark. Not many were done because of pricing I suspect. On top of a roughly 26,000 dollar truck the basic conversion in 1994 was $7500 and then to that a list of options was available. Have no idea the additional cost of the CrewCab conversion ! Scott [/QUOTE]
