Hello,
Dsraven, basically a 1983 1 ton as the donor for the drive line/engine/trans/frame and the 1959 "38" for the front clip/cab. No bed on the 59 and the flat bed on the 83 is junk, so I'll have to find or build a flatbed. I've got bedside tool boxes and a Autocar crane to put on it.

Ogre, the truck I'm looking at is like your yellow one. only a small space between the corner of the hood and the headlight.

Thanks!
Richard
