Description of 1938 Dodge T41 dump

1938 Dodge dump truck, older restoration, electronic ignition, 12 volt, hydraulics for dump body work great. I have driven this thing every where with no troubles, I drove in it one day 7 long hours, and I wouldn't be afraid to jump in right now to go anywhere, I would just replace the tires
ENGINE- 1952-1954 Chrysler 265 flathead 6, I recently replaced pistons and rings, bearings. The rest of the motor was rebuilt about 7 years ago, motor runs perfect, starts right up, smooth and plenty of power.
TRANSMISSION- four speed with pto, pto leaks a little bit of gear oil, nothing big. pto shaft works fin, could use some new joints for pto shaft.
REAR AXLE- rear axle seals have been replaced and all brake parts are perfect, installed a higher gear ratio to go 50 mph comfortably
FRONT AXLE- front brakes are perfect, replaced front king pins and bushings, replaced front axle seals
CAB- the cab has a 1980-1990s paint job but it doesn't look that ba, patina ! there are just a couple of spots on lower cab that are rusting throug, you will see in pictures, nothing big,, the floor is mint, the doors have no rot . front fenders have no rot, maybe a few small dents, running boards no ro, just a few dents, dings.
DUMP BODY- the dump body is in great shape, one small hole in body floor over left rear tire, nothing bad, I have a temporary patch over it. The hydraulics work perfect, body goes up and down no problems.
GAUGES- gauges were rebuilt by a dash gauge repair shop, one of the pieces of glass broke when I put in. the speedometer is not accurate, I use my phone app gps
TIRES- the six tires are ok, but they are cracked on sidewalls, I would replace all six if I were to put back on road, 7.50-20
RIMS- the rims are in good shape, no heavy rust anywhere
CHARGING- 12 volt conversion to anything that was needed, Chevrolet 12 volt alternator,, original starter just cranks better
