          I have no idea why it is pinkish. Wonder what a 12v and transmission setup would cost?

            I'd go for a much less grand scheme, maybe putting that cab on a modified one-ton pickup chassis or build a custom frame and use one-ton running gear under it. It would lose a lot of the cool factor, but be much more streetable and practicable.

              streetable and practical are not my concerns. Cheap and cool as shit is what I am going for. Get it driving good, air horns, and find a trailer.

                  I was about to say it almost looked like a porsche 356 headlight bezel.

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.
                      I think '63 was the last year for the Lincoln Y-block, so she could very well have one. They even put some 300-6 in those things.

                        You're right on the money. Don't dick with stuff that doesn't need dickin. It That's a badass truck I would buy all of them for $350.

                              no he is a hoarder to the max and was really hard to get him to come off the truck. Its taken weeks of bugging him.

                                its definitely a v8 and like I stated earlier the distributor is at the back and slanted. I know a y blocks dissy is like that but I couldnt find any pictures of an old super duty to see if it also was at the back and slanted
