Tom has been searching for a father/son FC project and came across this FC-150 Stake.  It had a plow on it previously and still had the PTO pump mounted in the cab.  There was also another part vehicle that was available.  Unfortunately the owner was looking for a little more money than was thought reasonable considering the condition of the vehicles (trees growing inside them)  and passed on the deal.  I'm sure another one will come their way.
UPDATE: 12/09

Tom contacted me and told me that they did end up buying this truck and are indeed in the process of restoring it.  It's a 1957 Narrow-track with a diamond plate stakebed.  I'm glad to hear that you and your son now have a project to work on together.  Keep us informed on your progress.
