I just a week ago picked up another square body truck.
This will be the 3rd one that I have had.
It is as the title describes.
It was built in the Owosa factory just outside of Toronto.
From what I can see it lived in British Columbia until around 1990 or so.
At that time it came into the states to live out at the Oregon coast for a while.
The people I bought it from have simply used it as a very occasional use farm truck.
Now I have it to do all of my hauling chores around the house and to give it a good life.
It has a rebuilt 30 over 454 to make it a 461.
Transmission is the dumptruck like SM465, so it will never break.
Just shift like a school bus...
Soon it will need a new exhaust as the duals that are under it now are too small and also rotten.
It is missing one of the tailpipes and the mufflers are garbage.
But it works for now.
Just last night I picked up a set of Flowmaster 2 chambers off of craigslist.
So we are underway for better breathing.
