Josh, that one is quite interesting. Looks like an older C-cab.

Some posted this on a FB page and it's got me intrigued. Anyone know what this truck is? I has five lug wheels so it could be a custom body built on a Ford chassis. It looks to be a special purpose truck with some kind of drive unit, maybe some kind of conveyor or winch behind the cab and the framework on the front supported something. I can almost make out what it says on the side but not enough to make out a company name. It seems like there are a lot of truck guys here who know a lot about odd ball trucks.
