Nice looking truck! Great picture, too!

Not being very familiar with new-fangled 'fridge trucks, it appears that Ford used the short-bed wheelbase with the long-bed models too? Or was this one converted to long-bed?

Ford used two different wheel bases one for long and one for short bed (112" and 118") I could be off on my measurements. My truck does have the longer wheel base. At one point I thought about bobbing the frame and moving the rear axle.However the long bed has really grown on me. My idea is to make the truck look like an old drag way push truck. Complete with wooden push bumper and hand painted doors
