    Uncle had a 56 that was bought new by Mott core drilling of Huntington. Always thought it was a good looking truck….

    Most of the different brands of trucks back then used the same cab .

    the vents on the hood should help identify it .

    It won’t have power steering, air conditioning, much of a heater, air ride and will be loud and slow. So the drivers will hate it.

    sure it is, restore it as a toy. Id love to get my hands on that and turn it into a ratrod or offroad buggy. This secene from fast and furious comes to mind.

    The fender shape looks like an exact match, plus the ridge for the upper body line and the vents...

    I do believe you nailed that one! :thumbup:

    It’d be the darling of the truck shows. As a working rig not so much. I’d like to have it
