Dad's 65 C60
 
3 Attachment(s)
Just thought I'd share a few pics of my late Dad's 1965 C60 that my brother and I now own. Dad ordered this new from the dealer and its been in the family ever since. It runs and drives but not very often over the past 10 years. It would be great to know the tonnage it hauled over the years. I was driving it to the elevator in town as young as 14. I never did get the hang of the two speed axle though. I would love to make roadworthy again. Maybe some day....

Looks good.

Two-Speed Rears can be tricky, but we will gladly help you with it whenever you get it back on the road.

Very nice, you need to clean it up and get it roadworthy again. I expect it still has lots of loads of grain left in it.

Don't build them like that now.

You are correct, it must be a '66 model year.

A picture of the side of the truck would tell us for sure.

And the VIN, of course.

Dark fawn poly dash would indicate 66 only,Pat

Yes, the instrument cluster surround is silver so it must be a '66.
