Re: Top Kick
Man that thing looks CLEAN. Is there any rust at all?

Re: Top Kick
Back of the frame has surface rust, it needs sandblasting.

Re: Top Kick
Looks nice!
How did you get the body off? Unbolt and lifted? Or plasma cut it to pieces? Just curious since I am about to tackle a similar operation on a 69 C50 former fire truck. |

The phone rings twice a week with offers to take the fire body off my hands for free. My son has a brainstorm for a pickup flatbed cutting it up. That seems OK to me. I weld aluminum. Many times I've bought at top dollar the same material this thing is built from. The cast iron pump, I'll scrap. The 1000 gallon poly tank is the stuff VT sugarmakers use. |

Re: Top Kick
C50 is a great looking truck. They are the right size for a work truck. Most had 350 engines, that is a bit mild for trailer duty.

Still, horsepower is not huge. There are numerous listed horsepower ratings, I think about 230 HP. |
