Nice specimen of one of the world’s toughest heavy duty mid-range GVW work trucks. This truck was delivered brand new to Fort Riley Kansas in 1969. Honorably discharged to civilian life in 1978 and has worked as a grain truck for the last 32 years. The truck is in good condition due to being stored in the barn for the majority of the last 32 years. The truck is currently registered, insured and used for farm related tasks.


Truck specific information:
W500 4x4; 69,700 miles; 20,000 GVW; 175-in. wheel base; 225 slant 6 L2 engine; 4 speed NP435 trans.; Rockwell 2-speed transfer case and Rockwell front axle with 6.72 gears; original equipment Warn lock out hubs; manual steering, vacuum assisted brakes; 14-foot stake bed converted to grain-body sides, no hoist.


Recent Maintenance and Repairs:
Completely new fuel system, fuel pump, fuel lines, rebuilt carburetor, fuel tank blasted and epoxy lined; new battery.


Truck Operational Information:
This W500 drives very nice. The NP435 transmission shifts smooth and runs through the gears nicely. Of course with an empty weight of 8,700 pounds you need every one of the 4 speeds to reach 45 MPH. But this is a heavy duty truck that can haul over 11,000 pounds. The brakes have a vacuum booster and are the best of any power wagon I have owned. The Warn hubs and transfer case work well. The truck needs tires and the master cylinder has a slight leak. The cab floor does have some rust through, but is solid. The front cab mounting bolts will need work, but they are solid. Obviously the truck has some surface rust and could use a paint job. The paint is original issue as can be seen by the Army markings.


For more information or to schedule a test drive, call Paul, 937-687-3788, or e-mail storkfarm$aol.com, replacing the $ with a @.
