thanks for the info. i went thru my CMP manual and indeed the drive lines are different. F15 to a F60 they had to be. but there so many details that i'm missing that i might try to pursue this truck.

it happened. i bought this cmp. Chris did a great job of accurately describing the condition of this truck. and it does appear to have everything with it still. i got it over the border on sunday. i did the import myself and it was easier than i expected. i payed the fella $2000. US for it. and because of NAFTA i did have to pay any tax on the import. so now to take a deep dive into it and see what i got. thanks for posting this and all your help Chris, and thanks to anyone who helped me with advice.

Leo
I知 glad that it worked out between you and the seller. Ron is an awefully nice old fellow and I知 happy to know you helped him out and that the truck is now at least in the hands of a collector.
I知 sure you値l find the truck to be a great source of knowledge, as I saw bits on it that are usually long gone and very hard to find. Yea, lots of it will probably only be useful as patterns but knowledge is power. Having original parts samples to examine, catalog or even document is awesome.
