Gary:
I went by to preview the '56 PW and it is pretty rough to say the least.
I spoke with the elderly retired farmer, nice gentleman, used it for 15 years on the farm.
Sat in the field for at least 5 unused.

Interior: areas rusted through- wiper boxes, glove box, parts of dash, all floor boards gone, seats demolished,glass broken on doors, windshield frame rusted shut.

Exterior: bed rotted wood, box rusted through, frame heavily rusted, running boards now flexi boards.

Tires: holding air, thats all.

Running gear: all there, thats the best description, heavily rusted though.

No winch, no pto for one.

No special fittings, like rear belt take-off, etc.

I would estimate cost to put in steet legal running order, at least $3000 min.
Cost to look like something you'd like to be seen
driving, at least $5000 min.
Full resto., at least $10,000.

If anyone wants more info, just let me know, but I think that about sums it up. If you just want running gear, stuff that might be rebuildable, this is a good parts truck, but I may be pushing it at that.
