F68 Truck
I spotted this F68 Ford truck in the woods beside the farm yard where I was picking a piece of machinery. I missed it at the auction but they tell me it did not sell. No engine in it and no box visible. Looks like a set of hub caps laying in the cab. I guess it will go for scrap although I am tempted to "rescue" it. Too bad somebody used the windshield for target practice.

Re: F68 Truck
Do everything you can to get that one... the grille stainless looks mint.

The story I got was that the engine was out and is probably buried in the scrap iron pile but there is another flathead that was supposed to be going into this truck that is still available. Also a newly upholstered seat for the truck was sold at the auction. It was a restoration project that never got finished.

I used to drive one of those in worse shape than that, except the windshield.

Re: F68 Truck
I see the radiator and other engine parts stored in the cab. Radio under the dash. Original equipment? Hard to tell in this photo I guess.
