          Wow. That's pretty cheap. Restore it and all it off as a promotional piece to a local business. Easy money.

                    Body damage wise it seems really straight. The passenger front glass has a crack in it ( not terrible, but I will want to find a new one)

                    wonder if the engine could take a little boost. Would be really simple to do a junk yard setup with all the room

                        Well I am hoping super duty but I didn't dig into it too much because it was so cheap I would have bought it either way. It was from a shooting buddy of mine who has had it for a while and doesn't know anything about it. I have a mental image of what the engine looks like viewed from behind the cab. It has a rear mounted distributor at a slant. So at first look it may be a lincoln y block engine but I couldn't find any pictures online of the old super duty engines

                        The guy I got it from thinks its a 1963 but wasn't sure of that either lol But like I said before id buy it either way. Hell scrap value is probably double what I paid.

                          That's cool as shit. Every time I see these models I think of a Fire Engine.

                            What are you going to do with the back? Body, flatbed, PU truck bed?
