Interesting truck too short of wheel base for hauling much.

Looks like one of those tractors that moves trailers around the yard only.

Could have been for hauling mobile homes, but it may actually be too long for that.

Now wait just a darn minute! That's the same truck as I posted here;

So this is round three (that I know of) on eGouge, only now it's minus some of the exterior stuff AND it's engine, and yet the asking price remains the same??
See, it had an engine before...

Dollars to donuts, I'll bet that was a 261-inch 6 in that old girl. I have a 215 and a 223. I could complete my collection of early Ford OHV inline 6 yard art if I had that motor.

yeah the bum bought the truck just to scab the engine by the looks of it!!, does the step in the rocker cover help with what it is?

Didn't the 262 have the fuel pump mounted on the timing cover? It looks like the fuel line coming up at the rear of the dist, which, I think should make it a 223.

That truck would really be something if it had a 5th wheel plate on it and a 3208 CAT up in the front.

Some guy built 10 bump cab f350s with 3208 cats in them. They came with custom 5th wheel rv trailers and custom beds with diesel generators mounted. I saw one about 5 years ago at a local rv lot . That big slick would be cool with a setup like that.
