I’ve built back much worse. PTO with rear facing shaft is a bit tricky to source.

Heck no! If the price is right? Thats all easy stuff, consider yourself lucky you don’t live in the rust belt...

The steering wheel looks great! It has a gear shift knob too.

Looks like a project fer shur! I know where there are some doors, possibly a PTO, a complete dash, maybe a starter. Wonder why the fan hub was removed? At least the pump is still there! I do see a couple of holes open to atmosphere.

Looks like the throttle linkahe is missing; swapping a complete Cummins KTTA will fix this problem.

as long as none of the dump equipment is missing and the hoist pistons aren't bent or otherwise broke, all the rest will just keep you off the street corner for awhile .. Also, check the condition of the welds and crossmembers along the rear area of the bed above the hinges .. They are known to break apart back there due to rot in that area, or also overloading at the front of the bed

I don't think that'll fit! If it could fit, do a 750!

I’ve been looking at this truck for 20 years. It’s within dragging distance.
I run a large machine and welding shop, dump stuff no prob. A dump would be handy for my side work of tree removal. Dump 6’ off the ground not as good, haha! Maybe smol tires.
I’m a deuce guy, so little learning curve. Not much
Semi powertrain mech exp.
Reg and ins in SoCal, I shudder to think…just did deuce.
parts?
