Speed Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Looks like a pretty decent truck. Good find! How common was the "big" 8 lug pattern? I can't remember ever seeing an 8 lug except for the "small" 8 pattern on the 3/4 and 1 ton pick ups.

Dougsr Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 I Don't know unless it was a special order on the bolt pattern. It may have been common on the F7 but not on the F6. I don't think this one has but there was a lot of them around here used for log trucks. The people that owned the sawmill and town owned a Ford dealership so that is what they used but I doubt they owned this one. Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speed It is a good looking truck, will make a nice restoration project...and i'm still wondering about the 8 lug deal myself. 1 Quote This message was brought to you by Hargraves Potted Meat Product.

Dougsr Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 I think he is going to put the dump bed that came off the B Model Mack on it. That is the plan right now. Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougsr Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 No I didn't. My friend owns it. We run around together and mess with these old trucks and tractors. He already has a modern running gear that he is going to put under it. That way he won't have a lot of money in it. The other running gear was free. He may need a few patch panels. This guy is so good he can weld a tin can to a goats butt. At least it won't go to the scrapper.Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
