Should this have a IDI

[Eason]

I saved this 1959 B-120 ex-civil defense from the scrapper. All the lights and guages work. Needs brake work. Eason

That's a very cool truck. What a shame that someone was going to scrap it.

It would be SWEET, but you would need to get rid of the single master cyl brake setup if that year still has it( which im pretty sure it does) and rig it with a dual master cyl setup with some kind of power brakes ( would be a great candidate for scavanging a complete hydroboost setup and plumbing it in ) and you'd need a custom radiator built , I really doubt the one in it is big enough to handle an IDI.

It's got a BD-240. I've thought about a D-301 or 282 or even a 312 or 360. Eason

Upgrade brakes as said and drivetrain, newer engine and axles and call it good.
