Truck Restoration

[jayste]

Jesse, I'm amazed there are still trucks out there that are in that good of shape. And to think it was a day away from the bone yard!:thumbsup:

It snowed so I had to get some pictures. This was our second snow in a month, supposed to snow this coming Monday night and maybe again later next week.

She looks cold in the snow. I'll admit I miss seeing the headache rack it used to have; but the toolbox is probably far more practical for your needs.

That's still one pretty truck.

I saw B.A. Baracus fixing one exactly like this one, in under a minute, last week.. But that was 25 years ago

I know this is an old thread but I thought I would give an update on the trucks. This thread was for my '59 White 4400TD and the thread for the restoration of my '56 White WC22PLT is here http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/...377-truck-restoration-part-ii.html?highlight=

I still take the trucks to shows, if they're close I'll drive the '59, otherwise I'll haul the '56 on my trailer with my pickup. They both get lots of attention, especially from people who used to drive one and haven't seen one in 45 years. Right now I'm talking with the owner of a '64 White 4200 gin pole truck. Not sure we'll be able to make a deal but I hate for the truck to get scrapped. He bought the truck from the same dealer my '59 came from.

Good luck on getting that gin pole truck. Looks like it would be a great addition to your fleet!!!
