Your new truck is worth a lot more than a thousand bucks. That puppy has a really straight body and very workable chrome work. Looks just about all the original pieces are there. Nice dash. Heater box in your truck is worth $150 alone.

Sure enough a Godzilla size air conditioner, never have seen one that big before! Now that has to go, ugly!

This telephone company utility box on the back is very unique. Clearly the box is custom made to fit your style of truck. I would be tempted to keep the utility box. Doubtful there are many trucks around with one of those utility boxes. Easy enough to have a metal supply yard slice and dice you a new top for the box, maybe 1/8 thick diamond plate. An aluminum top would be nice and look good all shined up.

Looks 16 inch rims up front and 15 inch rear. Periodically on Ebay you will find original 16 inch rims, usually one at a time, maybe a pair.

Normally I would suggest you look around at Denman Tires for old fashion style tires. Couple weeks back, after almost a hundred years in business, Denman filed for bankruptcy protection and is now being liquidated. Tube type tires are now much harder to find. I suspect some sizes, like 20 inch tires, will become impossible to find.

Nice truck, great price!
