I'm currently just cleaning it up, getting the ten years of dirt, dust and crap out of it from the barn. The rat that was living under the seat peed under there as well, so I hosed out the whole interior and scrubbed it with Purple Power. I finally got the smell out and most of the dirt. I found some dark green POR-15 on Amazon, so I'm going to do the floors with that, then put down some new jute and a rubber floor mat.
Every time I turn around on this thing I find out how well this guy took care of this truck. On my '50, I drained the radiator and gobs of brown crap came out. I expected the same thing with this truck, but no, I opened the bottom petcock on the radiator and pretty green antifreeze comes running out. The engine oil looks like it was just changed. All that I have done is drain the gas tank and carb bowl and this thing starts up with barely a crank. I've never seen anything like it, it runs so well.
So I don't know what I'm going to do with it yet. I've got 2 one ton's now, and I certainly don't need them both, but I love em!! Both of them have unique personalities for sure, we'll see what happens.
