1959 F350 Ramp Truck

I just bought a 1959 F350 Ramp truck about a month ago. I am using it to haul race cars up to our local track.
I am working on getting the lighting issues fixed at the moment.
The original engine has been replaced by a 460 with and automatic.

That is one loooong wheelbase. There was an old song that went something like 'give me 20 acres to turn this rig around'. Looks like you'd need about 5, but nice to not have to haul a trailer. Maybe you could put up a picture with your racecar on the bed. Then also post it in 'working trucks only' on the 48-56 section. I like pictures of old trucks still working today! Cool rig.

I have two cars to get to the track this year so I'll have one on the truck and one on the trailer. I am about to get the car out and start working on them. Hopfully this weekend. I'll post some pics.
