Thanks for the advice. I did look under and I doesn't have the large spring canisters like the modern big rigs do. I plan on taking farm roads back to the house and driving really slow...

The more I think of it, I would love to make it a project hauler. The cab is in really good shape for the area. I think the home-made rack over the cab saved it from the rain!

I'll update you guys tommmorw. Hopefully I will have pics of it back at my house!!
