History
History
Built Feb 29th, 1960 (leap year truck)
It was used by Keddie Resorts, CA from 1960 to 1965 as a truck to pick up guests from the airport and make runs into town. The Truck sat in a field near Mt. Shasta from 1965 to 1994. In that time, it's engine and transmission was taken and it was left to die. James Froggatt of Redding CA. rescued it and got it back to life. The worst damage that it had sustained from the long period of misuse was for the lower rear rocker panel to rust out from the inside. It was in remarkably great shape. Everywhere you look the undercarriage was coated with a thin layer of Mt. Shasta red dirt.
I bought it from James in Jan. 1998 and brought it to Southern California
