Brought another one home today!

Found this truck last May and bought it but just now got around to getting it here. 72 1 ton with a flatbed and big block, 4 speed..pretty plain old truck but its very solid for a Kansas truck.

Re: Brought another one home today!

The owner hit 2 deer at once and thats the reason for the home made grille guard..altho there is no grille to guard anymore?

Re: Brought another one home today!

Plans are to convert it to 4x4 and use my Cummins 4bt in it..I have 3 different trans combos in the shop that I can use but have not decided on yet..TH-475, NV-5600 or a T-18 all have NP-205s behind them.

Re: Brought another one home today!

Although a plain truck,it`s a bit unique how it`s built.You didn`t see alot of big blocks ordered in 1t work trucks like that.

Jeff, the previous owner was a farmer in Homewood, he bought the truck in Nebraska when it was 2 years old so its been in your area since then. I know he goes to Topeka alot so there is a good chance youv seen it before. Hasnt been on the road in about 4 years tho.

Re: Brought another one home today!

The owner of this truck told me that the 1st owner had ordered a 1 ton cab and chassis dually but when he went to pick it up it was a single wheel C&C...I didnt think you could get a 1 ton C&C with single wheel rear. I figured it was actually a Longhorn that has had the bed removed at some point...any way to tell for sure?

Measure the wheelbase. 133" is a Longhorn/CustomCamper.

Re: Brought another one home today!

They made the Longhorn because they already had the frame from Stepsides and SRW cab`n`chassis.You could get narrow 9' utility bodies and 10' flatbeds for single wheel 60" cab to axle trucks.
