I have seen this truck on the road in Ft Myers, caught it standing still at the repair shop my boss uses to service his Caddy.

I get a kick out of those old in-house-built Convoy trucks.

Here is one of Belle earning her keep. Was about 600# and she did fine. Only problem I had was a heavy throttle foot that piled everything against the tailgate when I got home.

That makes it easier to unload. You could just back into the driveway, open the tail gate, stomp on it and you have a self unloaded. Lol

Here is my trucks first job in 45-50 years.
So, it's only about 5-10 pounds, but she did the job well.
Since my daily driver truck is in the shop, when the boss said she wanted corn stalks, I told her I would take the truck. She had me send a picture of my truck so she could show her co-workers what I was going to do.

You don't need a flatbed! Save your son the trouble and tell him to build a couple of birdhouses in ag shop class instead!

I hadn't thought about that.
It's very humid here and there was slight rain. Plus I wasn't going to far. It sure would have made an interesting ride though.

Nice, Dennis!!!!

Saw this at the AZ State Fair this weekend. Absolutely flawless body, as you'd expect in AZ. I like the color scheme, too. It's an F-5.
