Description
PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:
A flatbed truck is a type of truck which can be either articulated or rigid. As the name suggests, its bodywork is just an entirely flat, level ‘bed’ with no sides or roof. A stakebed truck is a variation on this design and is somewhat analogous to a railroad gondola car. It is well-suited to carrying bulk loads that don’t need protection from the weather, which makes it a good choice for railroad MOW work.
The medium-duty version of the Ford F-Series is a range of commercial trucks manufactured by Ford since 1948.

Good...
I was looking around for a late 60s/early 70s truck to compliment a lumber yard on my 1979 era layout. With a little modification this F-850 stakebed will fit right in!

ATHEARN F-850 stakebed
As I was building an order I ran across this item. It seemed to be the perfect addition to the lumberyard scene I'm developing. I'll remove the SP lettering and weather it up just a touch and it will fit right in!
