Introduction from Up-State NY

Post by npd811 »

I didn't want to continue lurking on this site, and with ifsja down, I thought I should be on my way to being a regular here.

I have two "J" trucks;

I'l live in Up-State NY in the Syracuse area.

Umm, I don't know. The firewall is red. The inside of the hood is pale, light blue. I think this is sort of a Frankenstein truck. The three-on-the-tree was replaced with a floor shifter but it still has the original I6 OHC engine. Other than the lift, it is pretty much a stock radio delete truck. But it did come with the 'flashy' chrome bumper & grill.

On another note this truck is an early 63 with a Willys data plate. I've seen those data plates before on 63 J trucks and Wagoneers. My VIN number ends with 10705. Does anyone have a lower number? So far mine is the earliest I've come across.

Welcome from the Chicago suburbs. I did several years in USNY, (Rome to be exact, at what used to be Griffiss AFB). Beautiful country side, but nasty winters.

Two handsome trucks and how do you keep them cancer-free??
