Gordon,
That's a 1951 White WC22. It's got a big gas engine in it but that'll be coming out of there.
I'd love to faithfully restore it but nobody could afford to fuel it with the price of gasoline these days.
I'm thinking I might even put a 6BT in it.
Or a 6CT if it'll fit.
It's only about 10K lbs & considering you can get a modest 300hp/800ft/lbs of torque out of the 2nd Gen 6BT Cummins, I figure if you couple that with a Fuller transmission...it'd tow pretty much anything I ever own.
With that narrow hood, you're kind of limited to an inline 6.
