I have talked to the original owner of this truck. He’s in his mid 80’s and still lives in Lynn, MO. He sold the truck long ago and has lost touch with the person he sold it to. I purchased it from a man in Phoenix in 7/2016. He moved down here from Linn, MO.

I have a 2 ton cherry picker, engine stand and parts washer cabinet for sale.

I have over 500 pictures of the steps taken in the restoration of this truck. I probably have the answer to nearly any question you may have about it. I purchased it with the goals of making it drivable and safe and selling it for someone else to rive it as is or doll it up to show. I’d like it to go to a good home. It’s been great therapy but its time to move on. Make me a SOLID offer. I’m not broke or desperate. The work I’ve done is solid. The work to complete list above is only a suggestion. You may want to tear it all apart and start over. Although I cant imagine why. Serious inquiries only, will receive pictures other than these.
