Straight, 5-window,steel grain bed and hoist with 2-speed. Has not run in several years. Appears to be early 235. Engine number behind distributor is: 55F1017N Does that tell us anything? Door plate reads," 6RWK 3844, which VIN,"busts," to say 1948 2T Oakland, 161" WB.
Hope to bring her home next week. Price was $400. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 2,549 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 2,549 | That will be a Chevy Loadmaster. A Loadstar is a International. I like to use the engine block casting number, when identifying these 6 cyl. engines. It's located on the passenger side, to the rear of the fuel pump. Sounds like a good deal. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2010 Posts: 41 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2010 Posts: 41 | Dang it, I knew better; I meant to say Loadmaster. Anyway, thanks Spanky. I'll look where you said next time I get over there. I suspect it will be a week before we can haul it home.
