This weekend I used my '54 F-100 to haul a 1143 lb pallet of field paint we use to paint lines on our soccer fields. It was delivered to local business that had a forklift so my son and I had to haul from the business to our fields which are about 5 miles away. No problems at all. My truck had plenty of pep and power and had no problems stopping!

Just goes to show these old trucks can still do it! I did have a piece of carpet on the bed so the forklift operator could slide the pallet onto the middle of the bed.

 

Fun ^_^

If its one thing I love it's seeing vintage actually used

 

mmhmm thats kinda how the mega overload stacks on the rear of mine from ford got broken . using it as a truck . i swore it's days of that are over and she's just gonna be my big green happy pill period !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i may have to get two late model trucks to do the work it did but ...................... by the way abe she looks good !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Yep, they just keep puttin' out!

Time for a trailer!

 

Sure is a nice work truck.

 

You couldn't do that with a Jag rear end, could you?! Glad to see it being used as Henry intended!
