Found this one today...

What is it? Looks to me to be a '58 Overlander maybe? Not sure if the Wally number is actual...looks to have been painted on...

58 O'lander looks right.

Axles my foot! Heard that before. And spin balance the valve stem caps too... This unit had leaf springs, not torsion axles. New leaves are available (help me out markdoane). And check those bearings.

...it doesn't leak though and everything works perfect due to zero floor rot.
Looking at those Cali style hot rod rims, I doubt it is sitting out there neglected.
