    I saw this truck about 10 years ago when I visited Ardell Browns private collection of cars in Salt Lake City. He has 4 buildings and over 200 high dollar cars. http://ardellscars.com/img3/63mercpu1.jpg

    Nope,sure isnt. Those are the daytime running lights. Even the bed is all decked out and upholstered in this one.

    Way back when,I posted a lot of pics of this. There used to be a web page featuring it back then too but I cant find it now. Ive got pics on a floppy somewhere but have no idea where it is. I spent a day at this guys place getting a private tour with a friend. I flew out there specifically just to see this truck,that was when I could fly on company planes for free though which is no longer the case. He has a few Cords worth over a million each,also a helicopter and several RV's. He owns a huge local RV dealership. He has a full staff of mechanics and restoration guys that do the work on the cars. He told me he drives a different one almost every day. One funny thing was he had a vintage fire engine in one of the buidings from a city about 20 milles away from my house here in Ky.
