265 miles on the odometer!


As you can tell, it's a '53. How easy is it to turn back the odometer?

And... how much is this worth?

Probably has turned over on the odometer. On the older vehicles when they hit 99999.9 they would just start over at zero. My 54 shows about 24,000 on the odometer and I know it was turned over at least once and maybe several times by previous owners.

Still it is a pretty straight truck.

fifty-two_f1 are you looking for the big truck fenders with the larger opening?

It's worth exactly as much as you or any other buyer is willing to pay for it!

i'd like too have the whole truck , but i can see a few trinkets i'd be willing to settle for . i had an f-600 i parted out had real nice fenders on it like those . some yahoo bought 'em for his 1/2 ton from 'round here as he needed bigger openings for the " dubs " he was putting on it ......... YUCK !!!!!!!!!!! DUBS DONT BELONG ON A CLASSIC TRUCK !!!!!!!!!!!! hmm honey i gotta go to whereever this is and drag it back home ........ never mind the 53 the 52 the bird , and your minivan sitting here . oh she don't know about the 76 mustang 2 at unks place or some of the other treasures tucked away in other spots .................... i have too much stuff !!!!!!!!!!!!

I have the contact info for the seller of the 53 f600 in Wyoming: Please don't contact him if not interested in actually buying it.
