The body is surprisingly straight and solid, It looks to have had a single repaint. Having spent much of it's life inside a firehouse in the high desert of OR. there is no rust you'd expect to find in all the normal places for these trucks. The engine is a 279 Lincoln Y block (first year for OHV), 5 speed Clark trans, direct/over/under White auxiliary trans, and tandem Rockwell rears.
I have converted the charging system to 12v using a single wire GM alternator, the original governed distributor has been replaced with a rebuilt 292 unit, new oil pump with hex distributor shaft. The water pump has been rebuilt and the radiator has been recored to the tune of $600.
The truck has air brakes and an engine mounted air compressor. I am the second owner, the original being a fire dept in the mountains NW of Bend OR.
I do have access to retired school buses (for frames and drivetrains), so any offer of a COE trade need not have a chassis, body only would still be considered.
Here is the album on the truck for additional pictures, I do have the original mirror brackets except for one piece missing. The stainless is in real nice condition, and should be a minimal effort to have them polished up to a show condition. This is a 5 Star Custom Cab truck.
