I was browsing the channels the other day and came across one of those auto restoration shows. Seems like there's about a dozen of them now, and I don't even remember the name of the show. But I stopped when I saw them working on this '53 White truck and tanker trailer. It looked good at first, but the owners wanted to modernize it. They removed the old 150 HP gas engine and put a Cummins in it, out of a pickup I think, and replaced the transmission with an automatic. Took the 2 speed rear out and put in a single speed with air ride, and put an air ride suspension under the trailer too. I like the engine upgrade, but I would have left the transmission and rear end alone. Or maybe put a 10 speed Roadranger in it. But a very nice looking truck anyway.
