Hmm, I know what you mean. In the mid-1980s I had a short ride in one which was in use as a glider tug. It wasn't running too well, but it made quite an impression on me.
See the thread
FWD Medium Artillery Tractor for more info on an alternate rear body type.
I see what you're thinking, US$600 is a steal but if the truck stood outside for any length of time, the wooden cab frame is likely to be rotted and you'd better leave it alone....
Sweet dreams anyway!
