    It is the White Truck posted by Abe. Yes it has been changed but still retains quite a bit of its former ambience...I credit the owner to some degree...He may have needed the utility aspect and fur lined box isn't really great for picking up bags of dirt for the garden. It may have went through many owners since as well. At the end of the day it seems to have transitioned from show to street. Where he has taken it seems fitting and fortunately it hasn't been completely cannibalized from its former self 20 years later.

    bchctybob...you got that right...Mopar defined "utilitarian" when they built my Fargo. You can't see up high enough in my interior picture, but there's only one sun visor...factory. The dimples for the p***enger visor are there in the steel header, but never drilled and never had a second visor. Just the way it was in '62.

    I know I am going to get yelled at for this, but here goes anyways...Does anyone know if the frame rails on these era trucks are close in width enough to accept a 73-87 Chevy truck front crossmember???

    Thanks Don, I think we have covered this custom truck quite nicely here and including the spreads. Interesting seeing two separate bouts of coverage. The info doesn't always show up so thoroughly but in this case it did and its still around. I did make arrangements through a kind offer from K13 and I thoroughly enjoyed everyone's input and @maverick Daddys for posting it to begin with.
