The chrome strips where found behind the seat when we got it home 8) Its all there and fires up as good as any other truck. when we got it home we had to crawl underneath it and manually operate the pto and dump cylinder (rusted pto cable) so we rigged a rope to it and every time we go to dump the firewood you grab the rope and pull :D its a great seller of firewood we stuck it under the processor and filled it up and set it out in front of the road. sold 5 cords that week 8) Tim

I learned to drive in a '49 KB-5 binder picking up hay. I would side down out of the seat to push in the clutch and then climb back up in the seat to see to steer. Thank goodness for throttles.
