Questions about this truck.
1. Assuming the 56 is an F250, does it have F250 running boards or the longer F350 running boards?
2. How long is the bed? Was it shortened? The rear fenders are very close to the back of the quad cab.

It has six lug hubs, which says F-350. Spacing of the stake pockets is another clue to F-350. Stu

A 56 Chevy wagon or sedan delivery shorty but they forgot driver's door. I must say they got the side trim looking pretty close.

Not a photoshop, believe it or not.




I wonder what kind of transmission/differential it has. Front wheel drive from a Toronado or something, maybe?
