I found this forum and it seems like a great place for information related to trucks like the 56 I'm restoring. This was my Dad's truck and I found it a couple months ago sitting in a pasture. The gentleman was kind enough to sell it to me so I am beginning a full restoration to return the truck to its original condition. It has a 235 six cylinder that I have been able to save with a 3 on the tree.
