I restored a 1948, first year of production, pickup, had flat head 6 that was seized, replaced it with chevy 327 and Muncie 4 speed. It was a total beast on and off road, I hauled 4 ton of sand on it and still has spring clearance on rear, no shock absorbers as springs so heavy if you jumped up and down in the bed it didn’t bounce at all. Had it for about 12 years and move to new home and had no place to keep it so sold it to a neighbor who didn’t take care of it and he junked about 2 years later, if I knew he was going to scrap it I would have bought it back and found a place to keep it. Great memories
Gracias a Dios hay personas q tienen recurso económico para restaurar y darle vida nueva a estas grandes e inolvidables maquinas de doble ...son una verdadera joya .
I tear up when I see these. Two vehicles I've owned and kick myself for selling were: (1) a 57 Willys Wagon with a 283 Chevy I lifted back in the 70s with Warn OD and a Ramsey PTO winch. (2) a 72 Landcruiser FJ40 with a 327 Chevy and factory PTO winch. Am I stupid? Why yes, yes I am.
Una belleza de troca ....las q caminan dónde no hay calle ...me hse recordar mi niñez en la finca q administro mi abuelo nos ivamos en la willis tan solo donde habia rastro de camino ...lo mejor q invetdo la ingeniería mecanica..lastima la tecnogia desechable q hay hoy dia .
