As you can tell by my nickname I work on pianos, player pianos and pump organs. I have a 1958 1/2 ton snb pickup that my granddad bought in 1962. It had 12,000 miles on it then and he paid $650.00 for it. Still have the bill of sale, and his records on everything done to the truck. I started driving in around 1975 to school and back, and used it on paper routes. The original 235 went out years ago, and I installed a 261 out of a 1960 Viking 60 series 48 passenger school bus. It had been rebuilt and had about 500 miles on it when I installed it. The truck now has 116,000 miles on it. Currently has a bearing in the rear end out, but will be back up and running this winter. This truck has a lot of history behind it( and I know nearly all of it).
