'62 f-350 long bed "wrong bed" 1 ton pick up.
Was sold new as a fire truck for use at an aircraft plant in L.A.

Auctioned off when plant closed in 1984 w/ 23000 orig miles!
2nd owner (who I bought it from) used it rarely in till '97 bringing the mileage up to 46250 before he parked it for the next 16 years in his driveway just down the street from me in San Diego, CA.

I picked it up in Jan. of 2013 and took it home to give it a new life!

This truck is 95% original as it sits. In this past year I have replaced:

The clutch, press. plate & T/O bearing.

The drive shaft center support bearing w/ housing.

Installed a 65 amp 2-wire alternator.

New water pump.

Rebuilt the power break booster & inst. new break shoes all around.

Changed gear oil in trans. & Diff.

Changed oil in motor (twice!)

I have driven the truck around 2500 mi. this past year but sorry to say the old spedo cable gave it up just before 48000 mi.

I also cut out & welded in patch panels to repair rust over doors, then sanded cab & bed and sprayed 2 coats of brown metal primer.

I am leaving town to work out of state & have no place to keep truck or work on the project! I want it to find a good home with someone who will love it & DRIVE it!!
