Bought this 51 home yesterday. As if I didnt have enough to do but couldnt let it be crushed. The roll bar weighs as much as the car I reckon as my springs have not been that flat before.

Good one. You are welcome to pop in. Let us know before hand to make sure we are home.
Its an 86 cab. When I first saw it I thought it may have been one of those rare ones too.
However my $300 investment yielded a few good items even if the chassis and firewall are shot and the engine seized.
