First off, Thanks for this site!! It has been a big help.
Got started on the 1 ton and have pics on photobook but I am getting to a point where some choices have to be made.
I plan on keeping the 1959 235 the truck had when I bought it, I will put in a short water pump so the rad. support will look alot better.
Would like to keep it a 4 speed. Will a muncie m22 go in the truck while keeping the original floor? And what about adding overdrive? I think it would go nicely with the 4.10 rear after I swap the third member. But this is new territory for me, so I am open to suggestions.
I bought this truck several years ago from a guy in his 90s and he was the original owner. He had the 216 replaced with the 235 in the 70s and he used the truck in his electrical business. I brought it home and stored it in my barn, I'd like to say look at the great barn find but I knew it was in there.
The motor is on the stand, the tranny is on the table. Leaving the cab on over winter. I don't like to bury the truck back in the barn, but thats where it will spend this winter.
