Looks like the service box sides are hung on the
original Utiline box. Cool truck!

My Uncle had a set of those box's and he would always order a Utiline box on every new truck, and remove the fenders, pull the box's off the old truck, clean and paint and install them on the new one. then put the old fenders back on the old truck and in on trade it went.

Just a heads up that is not a W300

It's a W200

Looks like a nice truck and a great price! It has been on C/L a few times over the last 2-1/2 years in the same location, wish someone would buy it.

Would a 383 be original for that year.....and if so, would it be the Raised Block 383 that came before the common B block 383 that is much more common?

I'm guessing that the engine/tranny were swapped in.

Yes Bucky, the 383 and 727 would be a transplant.

Originally it would have had either a 315 v-8 or a 230 flathead-6
