Mr. Southern
That is one nice truck you have there. Are you planning to keep it a fire truck or is the bed coming off?............Flat67

dont know what the plan is yet. it needs clutch and brake work , but thats way back on the back burner.

anybody ever see a hole like that on the drivers side inner fender. it runs out to the grill. maybe some kind of ram air system?

I don't really know what that hole in the inner fender is either.

I like the Shift Knob. The truck is a 5-Speed trans and 2-Speed rear right?

Other than restoring it as a Fire Truck, I know what I would do with it. It would make a great Roll Back. The Rear Axel looks like it is in the exact correct place for one.

Very cool truck. Keep some pics rolling when you decide how to proceed.

first thing it`s going to get is a bath and an oil change, if the weather stays nice.

That one is a solid one alright. Many firetrucks were fancy for medium duties with all the bells & whistles,but this one is fairly Spartan. :rolleyes:
