Old Ford for a local company. They have a mixed fleet, mostly older equipment. All of it appears to be kept up pretty well, like this one. They were hauling to or from the frontage road across the farm from where I was hauling off mud and bringing in gravel.

I know its not a big truck but it does have a stack and it takes care of some of the big jobs! 86' F-350 2X4, 300 inline six four speed, welder generator, gas powered air compressor, lots of wrenches!

Here's one from a local car show a couple months ago. He's from Hyrum, Utah, the truck has a 534. Can't remember the exact year, but it's a late sixties T-950.

He parked right next to me... the white cabover truck in the background is mine.

Nice looking truck in post above. Vintage looks to be a 58 or 59 based on the grill. 1958 was the first year for the 534 Super Duty Engine. Pulled the attached pic of a '58 from HowStuffWorks site:

'68 F600 with a 4000lb crane and a 14' flatbed dump. 331 FT, 4 speed, 2 speed axle. Besides needing a clutch and a new hydroboost master cylinder, it runs great.



Huge Marmon Herrington COE I saw in Naknek, Alaska last year. If I had some place to keep it, I'd try my best to 'rescue' it. Off the road system, most old trucks like that end rotting into the tundra when they're no longer needed. I've seen a bunch of restorable 60's and 70's 4x4 fords just rotting away out in some of the remote villages. Such a shame.

With Petty going to Ford in 2010, this brings back memories from Petty in 1969;
