It sure would. I mentioned previously that I had a '60 2 Dr. Ranch Wagon that I drove the wheels off of in High School. That model today is as rare as Hen's Teeth and very collectable. I really have a soft spot for the '60s but any models of that year just aren't around these days. I don't know if the production numbers were low, or they didn't sell well?
Your last post has a few which I'm diggn.

I want one! The Willock Swivel Frame modification is normally associated with Power Wagons, but Fords could have the modifications done too. Stu

What kind of All-Wheel drive is that? MH or some other after-market unit. The front pumpkin looks huge!

I would sure like a peek underneath to see what's happening to the driveshafts. U-joints galore. Never heard of this. I wonder how popular they were.

Pretty sure the truck in the ad is a Coleman conversion. Below are pics of the Willock added to a Power Wagon frame. Stu

Here is a video of one. It has a good look at the swivel lock pin.
Unfortunately it was locked during the test drive.

Oh, here is one in action in 2011.
This can be a rabbit hole for sure, can I call in sick today?
