That's a nice-looking truck, Billy. Should clean up real good. I've got a '62 F-600 that I've had for 20 years; have been toying with the idea of painting it up, but it's nowhere near as straight as that one of yours. Engine is a finicky 292 V-8, and trans is 4-spd w/ OD. Might be time to part it out, if anyone even wants parts for something of that vintage... On another note... Don't ya just love dealers? Notice how they got the hose out and sprayed the cab of the truck down so it would look nice and shiny in the photos. (Personally, I take a real close look at anything over 40 years old that has paint that's not seriously oxidized! Plenty of folks out there who'll dress up an old hog and try to sell it as a prizewinning sheep!) Good luck with your trip: Keep the shiny side up and the greasy side down! -- Maine Fordson
