man i like those trucks! dad had a 52 GMC 1/2 ton. that is the first truck i can remember riding in in the early sixties. 6 volt battery under passenger floor boards, foot starter, neat guages,gas tank behind the seat, poor heater, he sure used to brag that truck up. he used to say those god dam fords got to spin over fast to start ,... i go in my GMC and u barely see the fan turning so slow and she starts. glad u keeping it 6 volt! they are a tough truck. our nieghbour here also had that 3/4 ton in the same time period. his son just sold it here couple years ago. ooohh! just thought of the other nieghbour here had a 51 1/2 ton. he used to drive by our gate at about 20 miles per hr. so i would wait on my bicycle by the gate when i would see him coming. the peel out of the driveway and try and race him. one time i was right beside him and he saw me and stepped on the gas, haa but i was still right behind him. that truck was really nice. driven slow by short old guy. he had a 40 cockshutt tractor also and worked in low gear on the field. then on his auction sale it sold and the buyer left in high gear and i laughed , as i said that is the first time i saw that tractor go so fast. that was in the 1970's. but nice truck jim!
