Rookie power wagoner

Another picture of my recent trip to pick up power wagon number two. This was after we got a full set of wheels and tires put on and pulled out of the tree line.

Update

It is a very complete truck, complete with mechanical governor and rear PTO. It is under going a complete rehabilitation at this time.

We will be selling the original bed sides and tail gate, as well as the rear PTO shafts and belt drive. Just haven't had time to advertise all those components.

The bed sides and tailgate would be ideal for someone who has the skills to restore, rather than replace .

Just letting you all know, the rear PTO drive shafts, draw bar and belt drive have been sold.

I have gotten a couple inquiries and neglected to update this posting after the sale...my bad!

Just got back from picking up my second power wagon today. I got a tip on this truck a few months ago and it was just too good of a deal to pass up. What you can't see in the picture is that is does have front fenders, hood, radiator and cover, and the grill. I'm not sure of the year because the I.D. tag is missing, so assuming the bed is original to the truck, it's a first series.

Hi Skyler,
I just bought a 57 and am trying to figure out if my rear fenders are original. They look like they were hand made as the lip width is not very consistent. They do have the rolled lip underneath though. How do the rear fenders on your two trucks compare? Close up pics would be appreciated.
Thanks
John

Preaction.

Nice Fastback in your pics. Let me know if you come across a nice fixer-upper. I'm looking for one for a father/son restoration project and they're getting tough to find.

If you haven't sold the rear PTO and belt drive I'd be interested....also interested in the governor if you are getting rid of it.

Thanks for contacting me on the rear PTO, but it has been sold. In fact, it is all rebuild and heading to paint.

Do you have pictures of that rebuild in another thread? I'd like to see it. Curious why you didn't keep the rear belt PTO with such a complete truck?

Actually, it was just finished this last weekend. We worked on it for a couple of days over the holidays, and didn't take a single picture...DOH!

The rear belt drive, systemically, did not mesh well with the intended use of the donor truck. It has found a good home, I assure you!
