Yes, original wheels are in the bed. One has enough surviving paint to correctly pin stripe it back.
Still working on getting it running right now. Had a couple stuck lifters. 75psi on the outer cylinders, and only 50 on the 2 center cylinders. May be enough to get some fire out of it. Once it warms up in a few weeks, the plan is to pull it outside and try an official start. Still have to reinstall the carb, fuel pump, fresh oil, plugs, wires, etc. I do have the starter working and turning over fine and shows to have oil pressure.
If I know I can get it running and reliable for around town driving (small town of 2500 here), I'll restore the interior, but in some reclaimed wood for the bed, round up some matched tires, and use it on the farm.
