Fd,
that is a great find and tempting! However I am looking for a little less of a project and more of a heavier duty truck as the 140 version is a 1.5 ton. I like the look of the 50's bigger stock trucks as they sit high with skinny tires and without the modern lift. I think a 160 would be good too, but do not know if all wheel drive was available. Just looking for something to drive around town on the weekends without a particular reason other than for a fun ride.
Thanks for helping.

I sure like this one.
But I don't see any pickups there.
Here's another one for you.

Wow!!!! That is a good one fd. However I just purchased a 1944 truck a few days ago (attached) and I do not think I can swing another truck this soon. Somebody should snatch the 140, there was less than 1,000 made in all wheel drive in all years produced from the information I could find.
Thank you for helping with the chase.

My plans are to get it running, fix some leaks, clean it up with new glass and make it mechanically sound. Is has minimal rust for its age, so I like the way it looks at the moment.
It is a 1944 m-2-4 1 ton military truck that was made for the navy or marines. Probably when the military disposed of it, somebody added the k-5 cab and the double winches. It is cool.
