It's a 1/2 ton. The wheels are, well...here are another few shots.
It looks like the first shot with about 17 more inches on the bed. The rest is real.
I just cleaned it up, sprayed on some primer, cleaned up the chassis and wheels and tires, cleaned up the engine bay as far as this pic went, got a good hood spring on the right side to replace a bad one...so the body all lines up.
I was trying to figure out what to do with her when I did the photoshop of the cut off rear of the bed. Then I got the new project goodies and the '63's been sitting on the hill.
It needs a home rather than being squished. I was going to sell it. Properly documented pre-'74's get special treatment in the after-market around here in smog-land.
But I want this truck to go where it should be....to be restored. I'm not going to sell it unless no one on the forum wants it for free. If that's the case, then I'll "craigslist" it. And then deal with the pedestrians that will come around, or email me
moaning about a rusted cab corner or torn seat in a $500 truck. Someone spare me from the pain of dealing with Joe Public...Take this truck..... for free!!!!!
