The other night you mentioned your thoughts about buying a 1958 Chevy Viking. When I read your post I thought to myself that such a truck would be perfect for hauling firewood, so I looked on line to see if I could find a good deal on one. I found one in the Kansas City area, specifically in Ottawa. The truck sounds a lot like the one you were speaking of. I would feel that I have done something dishonorable if I bought it from under you, after it was your thread that made me think of it. If the truck that I am looking at is the same one you are considering, please let me know, and I will not touch it, yet, if it is not, I am really starting to like this truck. The owner sent me some extra pics showing the bed will not need any altering to haul 3 and a half cords of wood. I could take a trailer to MO after Christmas trailer it and bring it back where I will plan on replacing the 6 cylinder with a small block V8 and be hauling firewood by Feb. As I said, I would never steal it from under you, as your post is why I looked for a 2 ton Viking, but if it isn't the truck you are considering, the $1500 makes the truck something that I would seriously be able to use. Please let me know, before I fall in love with this truck. It looks just like the one I used in the mid 1980's when I worked in the woods near Cookville, and even my wife appears to be behind getting it, as it means a job for my son. I can get a different truck if this is the one you were looking at, so don't feel like I must have this. There is a local Ford F500 that I can use if you are planning to get this, so don't worry about me, but if you aren't looking at the same truck, I'm seriously thinking to get it, so please let me know if this is the truck you were looking at. While I like the blue cab, if I get it, the stake bed is getting painted black. Please respect my intention to do right and let me know if we are both looking at the same truck.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
