1950 F6 winch truck in Idaho
 
This truck showed up along my normal work drive a week or so ago. So I stopped by today and took a few photo's for you guys (and gals).

Dont ya just love those western trucks. In this crap state, a two year old truck already
looks like that.

That's a nice looking truck.

Good stuff... thanks for posting. Proof that there are still deals out there in this crazy world. Running truck w/ under 11,000 original miles... Wow! I'm glad in a way that I'm not in that area of the country because I'd be dragging this type of stuff home all the time. Wait... maybe I need to move there!

I think we need some hard core truck porn on this one! I'd love to see a running/driving video...

I bet those are 10,000 hard miles... but yeah, the engine and trans are worth that -- is the 5-sp a synchro?? paging BobJ....

That's freaking awesome, I want it.

F-6 trucks didn't come from the factory with 5 speed transmissions. I'd bet on a four speed transmission behind that 239.

That's a really rare Truckstell 5 speed conversion. It uses the F-7/8 transmission. Any chance you can get a closeup shot of the dash plate and some from underneath? I would imagine they used a custom bell housing and rear mount.

Thats just what I need! A boom truck. Lol :)
Hold me back... :) oh wait, nevermind its got the wrong grill, phew. That was a close one...

Conversation in my head right now:

"Honey, I've always wanted to see Idaho... I'll be booking a trip there immediately..." :-wink :-X19

11000 miles but probably a lot more hours on the motor from sitting running the boom.

What a nice truck. Would love to have that in my yard but doubt my wife would!
Where in N. Idaho ?

Here's my sale pitch . It would come in awful handy in the winter to pull you and the kids out of snow drifts .
