Hello Leo,

Good to see another civilian long nosed style military vehicle being restored. I look forward to keeping up with your progress

How far back does your restoration extend apart from the transition from film to digital cameras?

Do you know anything about the vehicle's history and what style of sides the tray had?

Have fun!

Kind Regards
Lionel

It's been about 8 years or so since I started. The first front axle I bought had some hidden damage. So it took a bit to find a suitable replacement. Once I found it I started back into it heavy. The history of the truck is limited. But it seems it was a fire truck for most if not all of it's life. It had 36 k on the odometer when I got it.the guy I bought it from took the pumper body off it and replaced it with a Ford script stake side bed. It was about 2 years before I started with digital Picts. I'm so far into it now that I'm gonna post some current Pict's to show where I'm at today. I hit a mile stone this weekend got the painted cab on the chassis

Yes I would be interested in the plates. Their in much better shape than the ones I have. And since my truck is not an original conversion the number's are not important.
