Back together

Just got this back on the road.

Looks good can I assume the bed has a hoist due to it sitting so high?

[Andydodgegeek]

Looks pretty nice. Got more info on it?

The bed is a dump is why it sits high. I was thinking about raising the cab to make it level , not sure yet how

Sure its a 1960 W200 used to be a fire truck so everything is all original, except the bed of course with a 318 wide head engine

That would be quite a body lift to go that high. Right off the top of my head the steering column would be a problem unless you replaced it with an Ididit column. I'd look at re-engineering the hoist.

Take the dump hoist off and throw it away, to nice of a truck to have that bed looking like that. Duane.

That's another idea I was thinking about, thanks for the suggestion. Also might get rid of the spotlights & brush guard & maybe the budd wheels, will see

Did you ever get the brush guard removed? If so, I am interested in it! Thanks.
