Utility Box on ebay

I know that there are a few here that like these enclosed boxes. This one comes with a 1956 Ford F100 attached to it.

Looks to be identical to mine, except I have the runniing boards that come with it. Wish I could find someone who had another one laying around, I need to get a few replacement drawers to go in mine.

That's a new twist...a 56 truck with a 53 grille! Usually it's the other way around.

It said there was 0 bids. How long was it on Ebay. I like the look of the utility box. Does anyone have pics of how it is laid out in the back and the side compartments?

I guess I should have looked a little closer in your gallery, you do have some good pics in there. As for the 49 I think it looks bitchen, but I do like the newer ones too.

Also curious about the teeth in the 53 grill, were they from an upgrade package or aftermarket, I have a 53 grill that have them but I see alot of 53's without them?

Are those utility boxes big enough to sleep in?
Someday I want to build a Tear Drop - one of those utility bodies mounted on a trailer could be a different option.

Honestly I think you could, at least down the drivers side of mine anyways. Not that I really want to try though
