I have been driving past this truck for 4 years. Literally two blocks from my house. I seen they were cleaning out the yard it was sitting in and scrapping everything. I stopped and asked about it and it was so cheap I couldn't pass it up. Lucky for me our scrap yard doesn't really like trucks without titles. The plans are to use any parts off of it I need for my 49 3800 dump truck and then build a rat rod (can I say that here) with the cab.
I already had the hood off (it wasn't bolted on anyway) and in the garage when I snapped the pics. I was trying to remove the hood ornament.
Its a 53 6500 two ton or says the vin buster. GVW of 16,000 lbs.
I can't get the pics to work tonight but it has a green cab with a nasty, ugly wood flatbed.
