owned by 2 guys over the the last 40 years. Was a "go for Coffee" truck for the same old man in a tiny town in BC for 35 years... probably never left the same 10 mile area in all that time. Was only 3 hours away from my house. its a 1957 L4w61 Graham Paige based engine. Only one i'm aware of in North America.

Runs and drives,brakes have been relined but leak.

Very cool !

But, I think you might have gotten the wrong forum?.... I think you might have been looking for "www.4WPatrol.com" 8-)

Of course, there are only like 4 members on that forum, and for some reason, they never want to trade parts... :lol:

4spd?!! That rig is awesome, the gauges and dash look more modern that the 1960's models!

Thanks for the pics! :clap: :clap: :clap: It's even more awesome that it runs and drives. I believe you are correct, this is the only one in North America. I am envious and happy for you. :mrgreen:

Nice Cedric's, too. The sedan is in amazing condition. You do find the nice scores. 8-)
