I found this old truck as i was walking in the woods today.
It looks like it has been sitting there for a long time.

Where did you get 59AB from? The code on the head says 58A.

I know, i kind of want to see who owns it, and see if i can have it.

I know, it even has the Oil-Bath air cleaner on it.

No, im certain it says 58a.

But yeah, i want to take it out of the woods.Yesterday i talked to someone who knows the owner, and she said that the guy will probably let me have it. Well, the fenders and cab aren't too bad, but the rockers and floor-boards are really bad.
