The Ford Barn

I have a 4 speed crash box transmission with PTO from a Pepsi Truck ( or so told). Due to the PTO, I assume it may have started as an F(?) dump truck. Every thing turns but it is stuck in 4th. If you want it, it is in Kilmarnock VA, just west of the Chesapeake Bay. I hate to take it to the scrap yard for 7 cents a pound. I am keeping the two piece hog head as I am adapting a T5 World Class Mustang tranny to the 8RT.

The PTO is probably worth more than the trans.

7 cents per pound is better then no cents per pound at the dump.

Does it have the band type parking brake on the rear? I have a friend who needs a band.
