52 F6 dump truck build(s)

Here is my new old truck
This is the first time I saw my truck in person.


That is BobJ who went with me to get it.

I plan on doing a frame off restoration on this truck next year after I get my 56 up and running and road worthy. And after I get my shop addition done

Hey Chris,
Your new truck looks fantastic! I love the dual rear end with the flatbed.
Is it an old army truck?

Looks like winter has arrived in your neck of the woods.

Congrats on your new truck. I got hold of an F4 with a dump bed on it. Wasn't a dumper to start with .The second owner put the parts on to haul small grains.Should get it home this week.Can't wait.

Thanks Ben ! The extra front clip is off a 67 galaxy . BobJ bid on it and got it and some other things once I won the bid for the truck . It was made in St. Paul in 52 so I think it was a farm truck that did not get very far away from where it was made. BobJ and I went up to Minnesota and picked it up 2weeks ago.

I think this truck had the dump added too.

I am going to build a steel dump like this one

I love this truck. I tried to get it but it was not to be. So my buddy BobJ found this one . It needs a little help to look like this one but I like the colors !

Will I have not done much with this truck.
I'm trying to get the title straightened out before I start putting a lot into it.
I m working on the title and hope to have on with in the month.

I love the big trucks. I'm restoring a '56 F500 right now. Lots of life left in her...like yours! Very cool!

Thanks guys . I am trying to put a addition onto my shop so I can take my truck hubby inside. Working on these big trucks in the driveway is getting old.
