Description
Just a quick shot of my 1952 Dodge that I use to plow my snow, it has always been a reliable working truck since new, it's been in my family since 1982 and has been in service all year round my whole life!Here are some other shots from the day I took this one

Yes, and we just cannot figure out why it's coming in in such low volume...

Nice! Did it come stock with the dump bed like that or was that something that came later?

Dang, that thing has a pretty nice and straight body for a work truck! lol

The only bad part of it was the back half of the front fenders because the fender brace makes all of them rust out, and the floor was bad at the edges due to beign a grain hauler and never being cleaned, I have replacement fenders for it and the floor is "patched" right now, but when the time comes it will be an easy fix!

Cool! Sounds like an easy resto!

Reasonable at least.
Nothing too hard for me to do at least!

Thanks!
The box itself is a factory one, but it sits alittle higher then stock because the single ram hydrolic hoist is an aftermarket Grain Master one that was installed when it was brand new!
As you can see in the photo the PTO and the hydrolics and ram all work perfectly, they're even pretty fast still!

Absolutely, there is no way I'd ever sell this truck!
It would be like selling my legs, all fine and dandy till I go to stand up!

Thanks for the kind words!
It will be a hectic spring and summer, because while all that is going on I am also goingto as many car shows as I can with my Rat Rod!

Thanks Dave!
Of everything I have ever owned, and currently own, this truck has always been my personal favourite, my dad gave her to me when I got my licence back in 98, and there is nothing that would make me part with her!
I was driving her tonight and decided to take some photos because the truck is always here, it kinda falls into the backgraound and we all seem to kinda take it for granted... so I plan to tae a lot more photos of it, especially in action like here but better quality so it can be seen

1983 Mercury LN7 (tranny)
1982 Ford EXP (tranny)
1964 Fairlane racer (driveline instal, I can't paint it till I know what the history is, so it will be a little faded but drivable for a while)

if there is time I want to finish the 1965 Rambler Marlin, drop and engine and tranny in my 56 Meteor wagon (312/Ford-A-Matic)
