1966 Ford COE

from Reid Cunningham, in NY State: "I have no idea the year of the Ford, that body was made over a broad span, but the Chevrolet C-70 had a current registration and said 1996. I have seen where the wheelbase is shortened and a matching long bed added to line up with the cab (it's a standard pickup cab), if it was mine I would be very tempted. Interestingly, this truck was already shortened from an even longer wheelbase. You could see where the frame was cut and some the extra frame was laid over the seam, bolted and welded.

 "...I don't recognize this, but the door has the paint rememnants of Mack Truck and the bulldog, so I will go with that. With the front end raised it looks to be getting some work. The International didn't have a current registration, but looks like it must have moved not too long ago. These two and the blue cabover Ford make a nice dump truck collection."
