Wooden Steering Wheel for $100, rest of truck free

Post by Chris T. »

I just bought another "parts" truck for $100. It's DOD is 1-43. Frame is cut, broke and bent. The cab is rusted out. No bed or tire carrier. But it does have a good wooden steering wheel, good door glass, ten good wheels and, after about half an hour, it runs good too. :D The farm only has 24 CCKW's now. 8)

Hi Chris,

I would be interested to know the frame number of that truck,I guess it's in the early to mid 160,000 range?
