S. Bear,
That style of truck is just a piece of junk, it belongs in the scrap yard!
Don't buy it, those Power Giants are just plain ugly and you will have trouble with those DANA 70s, always breaking axle shafts, etc.
I think they were so lousy that Dodge decided to build less than 200 of them in 1959. Nobody would buy them back then because they were so cheaply made. Stick with the WM style trucks, and don't bother with that W300.
Just tell me where it is so I can personally see that it gets to the scales at the salvage yard.
