awsome trucks, mine is a 59 3200 on a 73 frame with 3/4 ton axles with 4.56s and spool in front locker in the rear. Going to do a 350/ th350/ np205 combo in it soon.

my original 57 NAPCO

my was-original 58 NAPCO

Here are some of the cool mods that have already been performed:

KaleCo Auto budget lowering kit
McLeod Performance front-end weight reduction kit
Forward frame-horns / winch removed for steeper approach angles
High-offset, non-interference rear 'singles'
Custom A/C
Ford Aerostar passenger seat with custom grey/black upholstery
McLeod Performance easy-press, low-resistance brake pedal kit

Most of these mods were pretty easy to perform. Don't hesitate to ask if you need help with any of them.

Heres my '56 Napco. Old county plow truck in its day, which explains the roof lights and the huge v-plow that came with it. It runs and drives but I'd really like to find a set of lockouts for it someday.
