I just got this 49 5 window in a trade from the second owner came with a completely taken apart 235 and a 261 with a lot of nos parts to rebuild the 261. has a folder 2 inch's thick of receipts from 1949 to 2003 when the 235 went out then parked. looks like it was painted about 30 years ago. I have spent about 10 hours buffing the paint out to a nice blue. I am looking for a good engine shop near lodi ca to take the 261 to. The inside is original very little rust still has original wood bed under plywood. It will be a nice project for the summer. truck pics before i got it home [url=http://www.freeimagehosting.net/]TRUCH AT HOME AFTER A LITTLE BUFFING[/url] | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | sinistar, your one lucky man.
