Initial inspection shows the drive train to be intact and turning freely. The V8 engine is stuffed and will probably need a replacement as it has sat for a long time with no heads or manifolds on it. The chassis is badly rusted in places but is repairable. The cabin is in very poor condition but as these WOT cabs are simply constructed with limited panel pressings they can be easily dissected and new panels made. Sort of.

The roof has an interesting double skin with a vent that allows air to pass through the front and out the back. A sort of tropical roof I guess to assist in cooling the cab. Hopefully the top skin can be salvaged and repaired.

One concern is a damaged transfer case which has been roughly repaired with bronze. It appears to be functioning however but unsightly.
