well this one is mine :lol: bought it back in 2006 hase been standing for 3years now its "indoors", according to the frame number its came of the assembly line in december 1944, spend most of its post war life as a "tractor" and mobile home for fair people from 1954 till 1983 after that the truck stood still for over 20 changing onwners often till I bought it, there was some sort of shelter on the back but the previous owner took it off and cut the frame back to standard size, missing was the bed, bumperettes, front bumper, gastank and the original hydrovac was replaced by a post war unit, last year I bought a chevy dump truck for the bed ,gastank, and bumperettes, the engine needs a rebuild, tranny and transfercase are good, axels are the next thing to do.

ps. this is my first restoration so if you have advice or comments, be free to tell me :mrgreen:

well its been some time, but the restoration was stopped against my will :evil: , a storm came over a couple of weeks ago and took the roof of the "garage" well we all know that a party tent isnt wind proof, but the last time the wind was this bad was over 5years ago, well if the truck is in a wind proof garage the restoration starts again.
