Ford Truck F-500 V8 working lift gate, 12' Box; Great runner, leakproof, no rust

1956 Ford F-550 Cab with 12 Foot Box Description

Dependable truck with working lift gate. Our family music business moved many pianos and organs since the 1980's with this great classic truck. This truck is a money maker! Made us a lot over many years! Dad was a great mechanic and he always said: "It is not use but abuse that makes a vehicle go bad." So this great truck has just been doing great down through the years, as we have kept in in good working condition for all the years we enjoyed it.

Cargo vans are more expensive and not nearly the capacity that this great truck has; so you get more truck for your buck! call Chris 541 815 3318
A new tune up with new spark plugs, wires, distributor etc has it running smoothly as always. Pictures show the new plugs, wires, distributor, fuel filter etc. It has also had new paint to make it look quite good, but is not a pro paint job. Tires are in very good condition as we did not use it for long hauling, but city use mainly. (It is able to do long runs with ease although).
The lift gate always worked well. We always did have the motor tuned up and had some shop work over the years, with regular engine maintenance as needed. The truck has several e tracks on the inside along with lots of convenient tie down holders, that many newer trucks don't offer. As you see the pictures of the white steel tie downs there are over 100 strong tie downs! DMV Tags are recent and good until April 2018. License plate is also new.
Length of the cargo box is: 12 Feet (outside diameter), 11 feet & 6 inches inside diameter; Height is: 6 feet 8 1/4 inches (from lift gate to top)
Width is: 7 feet & 6 inches on outside diameter; Width of Entryway from rear is: 6 feet & 5 inches.
