not 100% sure of body tag #,having a hard time reading it,notice directional signal lites mounted under cowl lites Re building original T 137 engine.Discovered at teardown cylinders had been bored .060 over,with .012 wear in some cylinders Opted to re sleeve bores to original (standard) specs. My father bought this truck in 1985 or 86.I'm not sure how many owners preceded him,but I doubt more than a couple.He tucked it away to restore someday.After he passed away,I stumbled on this jewel.The last reg plate on it is from 1973,so this beast has sat for close to 40 years.I am hoping to have a rolling chassis with engine mounted this summer (2011)
