I just came upon my 56 one ton 9' photo I had about in the late 1990s.
One owner from a local dealer. I sold it to a local hardware store for
$6000. So i put in in "my garage" so click on that. I wish I kept it sam.

 

Nice looking bunch of trucks. I see an early 8N Ford tractor lurking behind the green early '60s stake body.

 

Beautiful one ton. Dang, that's a nice truck. I sold my similar '53 truck last spring. By fall, when sellers remorse settled in, I was building a replacement from a 59 F350 stake bed and a bunch of found parts that started with a big flareside box. Now I have to decide which of my other trucks I'm gonna sell. Not enough roofs and famous rainy weather in the great pacific NW is not kind to trucks with original patina. Thanks for sharing that photo. 9' flaresides are cool, but I agree, you can't keep them all.

 

Sam, I love your big trucks! Does that hardware store still have the F350?

 

Last time last summer I saw it, it was used picking up stock from his warehouse, and
he sold the ware house and the truck is inside the hardware store (a big store) and
hard to believe it is exactly the way I sold it not one scratch or anything he said he
put about 30,000 miles on it and did nothing to it Abe..

 

It is hard to keep them all. I have had too many for too long. Started in buying muscle cars, since found such good deals.
Next summer will sell off some of my fleet.
That is a nice fleet of ole trucks you have......they really are cool!

 

at least it has a good home , and i tried to keep 'em all and in the middle of my neighborhood was this old ford truck boneyard that my wife wasn't too happy with !!!!! don't know how the nabes felt didn't really give a rats behind either ...............
