that truck looks and is identical to the 71 Ford "Williamson" Wonder Bread truck my buddy bought about 20 years or so ago with a blown up 3-53. He repowered it with a 72 440 mopar and a built 727 automatic and for several years he used the truck in his mobile auto repair business. The truck held his dual MAC toolboxes, a 15HP gas Kohler air compressor, AAMCO brake lathe, 15 ton press. and a cherry picker hoist he fabbed on the rear of the van.

Even with all the sound deadening insulation I added to this thing, it was a beast with no power steering getting 6 mpg on a good day . He made a decent living out of it for about 15 years until retirement and I think he still uses it for tool storage.
