    Current daily driver is my '41 Ford Pickup. Sure needs a lot of work to make it "right," but soldiers on pretty reliably. Pretty good at dragging stuff to and fro, also.

    Plans call for removing the tandem axles for a single axle, and installing a ramp bed to be able to transport vehicles to/from the shop.

    9ft box? Are you sure that is not the standard 8ft.? If that has a 9ft box, that would be the first that I ever heard of on a Champ. I have 2 long bed Champs, one with the flat side bed and the other with the stepside. As far as I know, the long bed champs only came with 1 wheelbase length for the 8ft beds and no 9ft bed option. Not trying to push your*****ons, just very curious. Nice looking truck regardless and looks in very nice shape too.

    It's a modern, but you can't beat these for carrying capacity and mileage!

    When I'm done I'll be hauling parts with a 64 F100, but for now it's only hauling it's own parts.

    My new parts runner/beater truck - Chevy C-10 long stepside, 250 3-speed, heater, radio. That's it. A basic truck. My kid wants it now - go figure!

    Going to definitely lose the aluminum wheels and put some bigger tires on it! Red steelies with baby moons, and maybe a flame job! I've never painted flames on anything - this might just be the guinea pig!

    After I sold my late model truck, this was the coolest replacement I could come up with.
