    Interesting parking brake handle that appears to be a 40 ford moved from under the dash to the floor.

    Sweet truck that would be a nice addition to my fleet, if not for swearing off more trucks,,,

    In another picture it looks like a deuce dash cluster on the floor holding a pressure pump. I wonder if that was actually mounted there later to hold the pump or if it was being mocked up for something else.

    That truck is one I could put a few million miles on and enjoy every second of it.

    it would make me wonder if Bill and the truck survived the draglink angle, KILLER !!!
    And where is the tie-rod?
    CUTE,, BUT O MY WORD. !!!
     
  7. Love it. The later ford park brake handle is a nice touch. The low-hanging pitman arm is uncool. Makes me glad I use cross steering on old fords. I'd love to see that green paint in a color shot.
    30 bucks for the buy-in, eh?
     
  8. The low Pittman arm is where the term, "bumpsteer" came from, haha. Can ya feel it, lol.
    Cool truck, but after reading about what color it was, I'd like to see it in color too.
