Few more pictures
morgan 1046.jpg morgan 1048.jpg morgan 1051.jpg morgan 1052.jpg morgan 1082.jpg This truck was the pride and joy of a fellow who is the grandfather of a friend of mine. I know it doesn't look like much but there is really some incredible detail in joining the cabs. This truck worked hard every day of its life I think, and it has plowed a lot of snow apparently.

Ok here are some numbers
There is a tag by the passenger door mid way up from the floor that has the number #4230-2380 stamped in it. The serial number in the cab on the Dodge data plate is a frightening 91166613, if you are superstitious that is :0 morgan 1056.jpg The engine numbers are T149E 13190 If anyone has an idea of where I might get a hood anywhere in Ontario/Manitoba, or even shipped that would be helpful.

The rad appears to be a direct fit, but doesn't have the center fill at the top, rather off to the side.
It doesn't look hacked in at all, and appears to bolt right in to the factory location but the rad cover has been removed, though I did find it when scrounging around. Part number on the Rad with the DPCD Logo on it 1787376 CD DP B64 CD morgan 1083.jpg morgan 1039.jpg morgan 1062.jpg morgan 1068.jpg morgan 1069.jpg

Apt
the Cab you have appears to be Ford F-100 and someone may be able to use that, the serial # you have listed is APT for sure, you can also find the serial on the frame behind the front wheel ,pass side if I remember , engine should be T-236, are the braces from the cowl to the floor still there, if so they have a C broad arrow stamped on them , again APT clue, hope this helps,

Thanks for the reply
The cab is so carefully cut out to mate to the what I hoped was an APT tub...I am not sure it is easily separable. I haven't looked too close at the floor, but it looks to be a blend of both trucks. I believe the cab to be a 54 ford, and if you look close you can see where the gauge cluster for the ford leaves a space over the APT tub. morgan 1057.jpg morgan 1058.jpg The Grandfather who owned this truck was a very talented welder and bush worker. lots of the additions or repairs to the truck were very much due to the cold winters and working with what he had on hand. He used the truck to support his family with work and snow plowing over the years. The truck has a lot of history and value to the family, it is an honour for me to get the opportunity to own it. I wish I had met the fellow as I think he would have a great bunch of stories to tell. I went yesterday with my cellphone, but am documenting the process of retrieving the truck, as well as it is my hope to sit with family members and create a small photo and story/history book for the family to have. I want to document all that this truck has done and what it meant to them. Apparently the grandkids remember riding in it picking raspberries etc. It is critical that I save these memories from the scrap pile and ensure that the truck lives on in a book, and in my driveway. I still have to bring it home, but that will most likely be next weekend. I can post up some more detailed shots when I have it in the yard.
