1958 F 800-850 with a 477, first year with that cab/nose and only year with that grille.
To some a real collectors piece or for parts, glass is hard to come by.

 

[materthegreater]

Think it's worth $250?

 

[cfherrman]

There's probably $250 of iron there

The grille is worth that.

Truck was a BC Hydro truck and was used to haul Transformers up to a dam site, and other heavy hauls. Truck and 300ton trailer has been sold and last heard it was in Wash state.

And a multitude of different companies could own it, but I would bet it was bought cleaned up,
painted, new rubber installed and resold. It takes to long to place order and receive ready to go on
movers like that.

I took the pictures in Vernon BC on Sept. 29/09. I thought in the mid teens on truck trader I seen it for sale.

I believe Heavy Hauling in Kelso, Washington has it now or has one just like it. I don't remember if they got the trailer with it.

I learn a new thing everyday I have zero Allison knowledge.
