After spending 2 days pressure washing my truck I ended up with about 55 lbs of chicken manure, spider webs, etc. Should do great in the winter garden

Still have not found VIN on frame rail but will continue searching

Motor # A228277605. More I look at it I believe a frame off restoration is best bet - your thoughts are welcome.
Pls tell me what parts you see missing. I see only the radiator shroud (top portion) near hood latch.
Thanks!
