Surprising purchase

Needless to say I wasn't looking for a truck. But I guess I found this one needing a new home at a friends of Chris's place and since I had the trailer anyways..... made sence to me.





And it runs!

Thanks.
Well sofar so good. Dad and I took on several spins and it drives extremely well, steering is perfect. Dad likes it too I guess for awhile now its gonna just be the farm truck. One thing tho its geared extremely fast, which isn't the greatest thing for what we're using it for but its fast.

Man nice buy on the 64. Looks in good condition. Makes me think of the 66 Ford in Melville the guy was willing to sell for $500 to me.
I still wonder about it. Should go for it next spring if he still has it. Then have an old driver for around here.
