It looks like it is sitting on the ground, which when I first saw it I almost wept. It is actually sitting on a few layers of asphalt shingles and is very solid on the frame. Another great thing... the key is in the ignition. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stakeside Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Try this site: Fargo - Gallery - P15-D24.com and Pilot-house.comI found some good pictures of Fargo trucks. I believe the truck you pictured is in the 50's and I found this photo at the above site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
