Alco PCF 6.2-50 – a light chassis with a long wheelbase: 2.5-litre four-cylinder, gross weight 5,850 kg, wheelbase 5,900 mm
Alco PCF 6.2-50 is a light commercial vehicle built between 1995 and 1997 that, with a gross vehicle weight of 5,850 kg, falls into class N2. The notably long 5,900 mm wheelbase against an overall length of 8,200 mm points to a body with a long, continuous load area or cabin, of the kind used for special conversions in this weight class, rather than a compact chassis with wide overhangs at each end.

The register lists a four-cylinder engine of 2,500 cm³ for this model. Kerb weight is 4,435 kg, gross vehicle weight 5,850 kg. The vehicle is 8,200 mm long, 2,320 mm wide, with a wheelbase of 5,900 mm.
At 5,850 kg gross vehicle weight, the vehicle sits at the lower end of class N2, which requires a category C1 licence in the EU. The long wheelbase combined with a comparatively low gross weight points to a body designed for length rather than for high payload, for example to carry long but light items such as ladders, pipes or panels.
For a used example, check the chassis and running gear for corrosion and distortion, especially around the long wheelbase, the condition of the clutch and gearbox, brake system operation, and the tightness of the respective body; drivetrain and chassis parts are available through independent commercial workshops, while body parts come through specialist coachbuilders.
