Old rancher around here had a surplus one he used to bounce around the foothills in checking cows and such. Since our local "slickhills" are largely comprised of softball to basketball sized rocks with a good cross section of larger boulders I think he died of kidney failure. Seriously though if you rode in the thing you'd swear the axles were bolted directly to the frame. I think the little flathead 6 bangers were good for about 80hp but boy were those trucks geared low.
