This is my 63 shortbox I found in an old shed. It had been stored there since 1971. I did find the original orange hood and it is now back on the truck. When I asked the owner about it, he said he would sell it. i paid him and he said hang on a sec and went in the house. He came back out with a title which is rare around here for older abandoned vehicles.

This will hopefully be on the road by spring. I have a little body work to do and start removing the body to blast the frame.

It does not currently run. I built a 355 for it and then my wife bought a 59 apache 4x4 that took first seat to the 63.
