Talking two 55 ford pickle trucks

hello, im new to the forum.

Where do i start?... my boss collects old chassis cab trucks. It turns out that he is the vise president of B&G pickles. At the factory in maryland he picked up two fords and had them shipped to his farm. He saided that the trucks where used to dump the bad pickles . Im not big in the older trucks. Im joined to learn more about them. I noticed that there inline 6 and wondering if there diesels. Im going to put new brake lines and clean the carb this week.

Welcome to FTE! My inline 6 is a gasoline-powered 223CI. IIRC, they were used in everything from trucks to generators to tractors over the years.

Post up some pics of the trucks. We love pictures.

Welcome. This is the place to learn. Also see if you can get the vehicle identification numbers. People on here can give you the whole break down on the trucks then.

That there is some funny stuff.

On another note OF, If you were to post the actual size and year of these trucks and even some pictures, the guys on here are a wealth of knowledge...with a little humor for added measure.
