Look who I found!

I was out driving today on my way home from a local estimate, figured I would take the old truck. Well I looked over to my left and to my surprise another meadow green 52. U-Turn! But it was an F-6 with a Big Six emblem on the hood. Unfortunately it had a Chevy engine in it. And the story is that this truck was at the carpenters house and shop, as it was being up-fitted to serve drinks and liquor at weddings. Funny right? Anyway thought I would share this photo of the two twins. My truck looks like it fell on the floor compared to this one!

Those are some interesting side mirrors on that F6.

Love the meadow green!

It looks like the purpose of those mirrors might be that it saves making an upper attachment point? I’m not sure I’ve never seen mirrors like that before. Both trucks had been recently repainted amazing how close the colors came out.
