Yay! I finally get to post pictures of one of my trucks in here!

All ready to go (St Patricks Day Parade in Salt Lake 2012), although it was somewhat light duty work and only for an hour plus he shone bright! even among all the blank stares and attention! :-X04

I saw this one selling T-shirts and moonshine inside Ole Smoky Moonshine in Gatlinburg a few weeks ago. I couldn't really get a good camera angle on it for all the people standing around (I did say moonshine, right?). I thought the description on the sign was kind of cheesy and misleading (bumper was "designed" to puncture radiators, green was the preferred color due to the need to camouflage, etc.--whatever) It would have looked better without the funny sign.

Just a photo I found on-line:

Wow! That is one cool truck! Never seen one like it before.

Actually, I think it's a cut-down and fabricated "Parcel Delivery" ford, custom made. Quite common, back then:

Here is a 51/52 with a large load. Probably taken in the early 60's based on the other vehicles in the pic.

That's fantastic! looks like you had a fun day. I'm glad you're getting a chance to enjoy the truck

Josh, love to see the MH coe back to "work". i thought those yellow wheels might have been gone by now but they seem to fit well with the rest of the rig when its all dressed up for the big dance!:-X22

Thanks guys, it really was a lot of fun. a bit of work too but all worth it. so much better than.having a surburban pulling a.trailer :( lol

I was considering repainting (powdercoating) the.wheels but once i got those yom plates i changed my mind, that and with it all painted up like that it just works.

just glad i got used, what else can ya do with a truck like that :)

Old-school utility pole removal -- glad that they finally figured out a better way.

Huh, 'didn't know that they placed Fords in the Old Navy stores. I thought that they were all AD Chevrolets.
