Default Lots of Good Advice re:F60S

Guys,

Thanks for all of your positive comments and questions. I currently drive a 2009 F550 dually and I hear you all about the necessity of good (serious) brakes and a big enough engine to haul you out of a tight spot when you need it. I will look at a trailer AFTER we get the F60S running.
I checked the data plate before I left work today. It was manufactured Jan. 5th, 1941, Serial # 25938, Motor 3G-7408-F. I crawled underneath it, being in my warehouse, it wasn't an issue. It looked to have a winch plate mounted part way down the frame, just past the split differential. Hoist equipment looks original. Does it use the power take off to power the hydraulic pump? As well, the box bottom, sides and rear gate are all wood. Roof panels are solid and flat, no hatches. It did come with an engine crank handle and rifle bracket in the cab. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. We will be bringing inside the workshop sometime in the next two weeks. Warehouse is ok for storage but its getting cold out there.
Regards, Richard.
