What was that truck used for? Mine was a mason / hardscape contractor.
The light green 68 shorty was originally a forestry truck in Asheville, NC. Originally darn green, it was painted light green by the original owner after he retired and the forestry department gave him the truck. Though the utility boxes were a dealer add-on and period correct for this truck, they were added much later in life. The truck actually left the dealership as a stepside. The truck is currently under the knife receiving a host of upgrades that will positively affect the look and drivability of the truck, but the boxes will stay and likely get a facelift.
