1963 Studebaker Fuel Tanker Truck
Original V8 Engine
4 speed with 2 speed rear end.
You are bidding on a 1963 Studebaker 1 ½ ton fuel tanker truck.
Original V8, 4 speed with 2 speed rear end and power boost brakes.
Fuel tank capacity is 1000 gallons total with 4 separate tanks being 400, 300, 200, 100 gallons.
It has a new electric tank pump.
Has a unique rear tailgate and rear fenders that would look great with a new 2 toned paint scheme and lettering across the tank.
Want something different and rare, something for the farm, private airport, fuel gas tanker, water tanker for putting out fires (forest, house or grass fires)or transporting water, a mobile billboard, movie prop, mobil beer pub, or restore back to original.

Runs and drives fine but could use the following:
Hood has some bondo on it as do the right & left rear panels. It could use body work and a new paint job to look really nice.
Looks like it was originally red and Phillips 66. Would make awesome display with lettering across the tank.
There is a small rust spot on drivers floor, but truck is very solid being from dry eastern Oregon dessert.
Brakes can be pumped up by adding fluid, but will need a brake job.
Tires hold air fine, but are cracking and should be replaced.
Windshield is cracked and seat cushion has tear.
Will require a trailer that hauls large tractors as its scale weight is 8, 875.
Was being used on a farm until we purchased it a few years ago.
