The body is surprisingly straight and rust free, 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 that 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, all with approx. 60K original miles, and a low mileage air ride Frieghtliner rear with 6.14 gears.




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. The truck has air brakes and an engine mounted air compressor. I am the second owner, the original being Idanha Fire dept in Idanha, OR.




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. I've not had the time for much progress on this build lately, and don't see it changing any time soon. Thought I'd offer it up for someone else that may take it further along...
