A 3/4 apt?

[morgoon]

Hello Everyone,

Greetings from Northern Ontario, this is my first post and the first I have ever come across what I think might be a 3/4 APT with a lot of modifications.

This journey started by looking for a truck to plow some snow and I have the good fortune to now own this one and another parts truck that still has its 3/4 APT dash tag, but they both need a ton of work.

I have owned a 51 M38 for 17 years, but never anything else military.

Truck one has what I presume to be a 54 Ford Cab grafted onto the original APT dash/cowl

The data plate is missing and the frame has strange splices in it that look very neat..almost factory

Is that a factory frame shortening or something really well done back in the day?

As always I have tons of questions
