Also as a safety feature was a fire estinguisher that was filled with some stuff that I think was pretty hazardous itself . Certainly different times .

Different times, is correct.

Hi,Dakota Dave,and Welcome! My '48 KB 5 looks like a crabapple! I'm just going to clear-coat it. The sheet metal is going on a'72 1200 Travelall 4X4 frame. If you need chassis or suspension/axle parts,let me know. Has a nice 13 foot flatbed with twin hoist. If you figure out a way to haul it,you can have it. Previous owner said it ran 8 years ago,but it sat with the choke open on the carb.,no air cleaner.I may have a seat frame,if I get the power seats to fit correctly. Got any pic's? Here's a video of mine...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9JCA9SY7Ek
