I was going to put tranny fluid in the cyls since the PO said the 235 was locked up. I pulled the plugs and they were clean. I grabbed a screwdriver and crawled under there. The engine turned freely. Yeehaw!! I just might be able to get it running. I have the missing parts.
Nothing else I can do to the engine, so I scoped out the truck. The engine fan only has two blades. Did someone take a fan apart purposely? WTH? The water pump is locked up. The brake system has the aux booster on frame. Was glad to see Bendix brakes & tube shocks, my '49 is Huck and knee action. And something I hadn't thought about... the winch also has a hand crank! Cool! There is a decent set of inner fenders and a beater usable driver fender in the bed.
The dually wheels look different. They are 16's. 1954 only? Hopefully I can find 2 more to make a set.
