 Wow Dc7, that is a beauty!  Thanks..My brother, about 30 years ago, acquired a '40 Chevy 3/4 ton pick-up in original condition from a farmer in the Binghamton, NY area... He replaced all the brake lines and the rusted up king pins. We moved all his furniture in it from Binghamton to Brooklyn, NY in it...He thought he detected a rod noise in it (I couldn't hear it), so he replaced the engine with a junker '62 engine..It fit right in and bolted right up...Drove it back and forth to work for a few years and finally sold it for a handsome profit...It was a fun little truck to drive..You sat up very high and had a commanding view of the road...and it was simplicity itself...I loved that truck....dragonfly
