F-60S Plowtruck?
Hello,
As far as I can tell, this is an F-60S with a hydraulics package used as a plow truck. It doesn't have ID plates so I will have to measure the frame. It comes with the C-60X and the F-60S Engineers. I'm going to have to hire a mechanic. Regards, Richard

Hi Richard,
Nice find, looks like a very tidy unit. It appears to be F15A (101 inch wheelbase) not F60S (134" WB). F15A was originally equipped with 16" wheels, and it's not uncommon to see them with 20" wheels as fitted to F60S and F60L. Another possibility is that the chassis has been shortened, which is also not uncommon. If you post a photo of the rear chassis detail we can confirm. Cheers, Tony

Thanks for the comments Tony. I will confirm the wheelbase measurement later this week. If it is a F15A, the 20" wheels sure give it superior ground clearance!

F-15A Plowtruck confirmed
Hi,
So, I measured the frame and it is an F-15A with 20" tires. Gives it good ground clearance! I am pretty positive that the hydraulics package is aftermarket. The trees growing in the back were included! Feel free to let me know if you spot anything unusual. Regards, Richard
