New pics of my 53 R-131

Good to see the sit e back up and running. Thought I'd post some new pics of my 53 R-131...all original with 86k miles...it's still a work horse!

Awsome!! Is that a 9 ft bed?? I knew they existed but that is the first one I have seen.

It certainly is a 9 footer same as mine !!!

Yup, the original 9 foot bed....hauled grain in its early years and had factory option grain sides at one time. The other options ordered by the original owner were the heavy duty syncronized 4 speed transmission, left arm rest, 2 speed heater/defroster and dome light. Bare bones by todays standards, but still makes a great work truck!

Nice pictures. They will be very usefull to me when I will order a bed like this one to my L 130.
