Any Additional Information
Truck is currently undergoing a complete frame up restoration. Cab assy. and all correct radio equipt. has been completed (1/20/10) Truck was transfered from the Army to Va. Dept. of Transportation in the early 1960's. It was then used to test road and bridge surfaces my transporting a fixed amount of weight over them. It was taken out of service in the early 1970's and abandoned in a warehouse in Va. until I discovered it in 1980. As far as I can tell I am the first civilian owner.
