This old girl has too much history and had been severely abused since day one with a major traffic accident early in it's life(bent frame $700 later to fix) along with a A-frame setup to pick stuff up. The original first owner was one of the founders of Twin Falls, Idaho. I basically had 3 choices, resurrect it and enjoy, part it out, or leave it as a lawn ornament(tell folks I'm gonna fix it up oneday). I chose to modify/update and enjoy the truck giving it a facelift and a different color paint as well to what fit my needs/wants just like the previous owners did when they welded or added things to the frame and sheetmetal for their uses.
You can include yourself in the list of fixing them up pretty as well Marty(King Fancy Boy hahah). I am still looking for that Wibur or a truck like John E's 52 PW and Mike Stones 48 PW to take on trails and use as they were built for without beating the truck to the ground.
