1957 Ford, Old Funky Flatbed Truck
Ranked #2,120 in Cars, #116,727 overall
1957 Ford flatbed
This 1957 Ford started life as a pickup, but in the mid 60s was modified into a motorhome by stretching the frame about 5 feet and mounting a Travette trailer on the back.
At the same time a mid 60s FE block ford motor and 5sp trans were added, these feeding into a 3sp Brownie box, 15 sps forward, 3 in reverse.
I got the truck in the early 90s, took the house off the back and built a 14ft flatbed for it. I hinged the flatbed to make it a dump bed, but never installed hydraulics, I just chained the headache rack to the bucket on my loader and lifted, that worked great.
For Sale
