Yes you got it, I'm from the u.p. of michigan. Hancock/houghton.

As for the widow makers, yes, I do plan on replacing them before I get it on the road (which won't be til spring)

The iron in the background is several projects...I own an old used car lot with a garage where I work on all this stuff. Its a hobby right now but maybe some day I'll quit my real job!!too much fun !!

My first thought was how did you see the LR rim from that picture.
I guess I was too busy drooling over the posted pictures to see the link to the others.

pipebomb, Welcome to FTE! That is one beauty of a truck.

Here is another great shot of it.

Welcome Pipebomb. yes, very nice truck. And the setting makes me wonder what they did back then to plow snow? I don't think I've ever seen a show plow on an old truck in this forum. Have you ever seen a vintage snow plow? BTW, I was at Tech 78 - 80. Looks like you might be on your way to another record snowfall?
