The bed on it is a Ford bed, 12' long. The frame has been extended 2' in front of the axle. The end of the frame has been butchered right up to the rear spring hanger. The previous owner extended the frame with 4" channel iron (solid as a rock) but bolted on. I'll have to do some fabrication to clean thing up and to make it safe. It has a wood bed but I’m leaning on replacing it with metal and placing a wench at the front of the bed. I plan on replacing all the wood on the stake side with new oak. My plans are to add an accordion ramp onto the rear of the bed a so I can load our motorcycle and its trailer onto the bed (hence the wench) and pull a travel trailer. I wanted something pre computer and simple to work on. I’ve always loved the model (they were new when I graduated high school) and I am excited to complete the project.
