Does anyone roughly know the weight of a 1955 F500 bobtail truck with a wood flatbed? The bed is actually only about 16' long. I'm looking at picking up one of these that does not run and want to make sure it does not over tax my trailer.

Thanks

 

i would plan on 5,550 lbs but most likely less.

 

The curb weight on a 1956 F-600 with a 172" wheelbase is 4890#. Adder for V8 engine is 100#. Also add for 2 speed rear 20#. With a 16' bed I think you probably have the longer wheelbase. Adder for wood flat bed is probably 1000# or more.

 

Thanks, thats kinda in the range of was thinking.
