<p>This is my 1940 1/2 ton.&nbsp; A contractor friend bought it in 1954 from a barn near Cutler CA.  It was on eucycaliptus stumps next to the 47 Chevy pu that replaced it in 1947 and the Mod A open cab that
preceded it.&nbsp;

<p>  The odometer read 10,262 miles.  In the nine years since restoration it has been driven 1600. + mi.&nbsp;
While the original tailgate was dented the box had NO other dents, side or top.&nbsp;&nbsp;

<p>My friend enrolled in local trade/adult school and worked on and off for 3 years restoring and
modifying the truck.  350 sb with trans, Camaro frame clip, tilt wheel p/s, p/b, vintage air.&nbsp;
I have added a new Walker Cobra radiator, blue dot tail light lenses and NOS CA 1940 lic plates in the month I have owned it.&nbsp;
</p>


<p>  Thanks.&nbsp;
