TrampSteer Posted April 10, 2015 Report Posted April 10, 2015 Nice find. All the parts there but the air cleaner. Quote
Brent B3B Posted April 10, 2015 Report Posted April 10, 2015 My thought is your addicted also, LOL :^) Looks really straight! What are the plans for it? Quote
ruff1148kr Posted April 10, 2015 Report Posted April 10, 2015 Wow fender/hood/door gaps make my project look like a jig saw puzzel Quote
MATT47025 Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Posted April 10, 2015 Hey Guys, Not sure what the plans are for it yet. My dad and I just got our 50 running. This was parked a few miles from where I work and I haggled the guy down a bit and bought it. Wasn't really looking for one but hard to find straight ones that mostly original. The door tag is nice and clean but the area that had the model stamped was very faint. Soooo not sure if its a 1/2 or 3/4 ton. I found the oil bath air cleaner in the cab. It also still has the headliner. Quote
NiftyFifty Posted April 10, 2015 Report Posted April 10, 2015 Isn't 3/4 ton 5 bolt pattern, but bigger staging, and 1/2 ton 4 1/4"? Quote
MATT47025 Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Posted April 10, 2015 Its being delivered today so i will post more pictures later. I'm hoping its a 1/2 but still a good deal even its a 3/4 Quote
Merle Coggins Posted April 10, 2015 Report Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) Looks like someone went and parked it right in a big mud puddle. Good score. Based on what I can see in the pictures it looks like it may be a 3/4 ton truck. It's hard to tell the box length in your photos, but it has the inner fender bumps in the bed. That and I see studs with lug nuts on the rear wheel. Another indication of a 3/4 ton truck. Merle Edited April 10, 2015 by Merle Coggins Quote
