Thumbs up Re: 55-59 4x4s lets see um!

my was-original 58 NAPCO



Here are some of the cool mods that have already been performed:

KaleCo Auto budget lowering kit
McLeod Performance front-end weight reduction kit
Forward frame-horns / winch removed for steeper approach angles
High-offset, non-interference rear 'singles'
Custom A/C
Ford Aerostar passenger seat with custom grey/black upholstery
McLeod Performance easy-press, low-resistance brake pedal kit

Most of these mods were pretty easy to perform. Don't hesitate to ask if you need help with any of them.

Re: 55-59 4x4s lets see um!

Heres my '56 Napco. Old county plow truck in its day, which explains the roof lights and the huge v-plow that came with it. It runs and drives but I'd really like to find a set of lockouts for it someday.
