Projects More Barn Finds - 36 Diamond T's!

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by restorit, Oct 19, 2009.

  1. Lots of grunting, pushing, pulling, dragging, branch cutting, door removals, etc. to get these out of barns in Eastern Iowa and it was cold! Not sure what the plans are for the REO's but they belong to two fellow HAMB'rs. Those dashes are really something! Ok - they are Diamond T's. Still neat.

    Nice find! There's an REO Speedwagon Firetruck, not sure of year, at the Jack Daniels Distillery in Lynchburg Tennessee. tnrotter
     
  3. Those are handsome trucks. The details on the dash, raked windshield with twin crank outs are just classic. I hope they dont turn into chopped and channeled bobber's. They deserve better.

    I would love to have either one to put on my 454 dually chassis. Can you say "heavy duty kick ass pickup/hauler"?

    Hey, there's my picture again. Twice in one week. Too bad I'm wearing a Carhart instead of a swimsuit like Plowboy.

    Yes, they are Diamond T's. Anybody who wants the red one (minus the dashboard) should PM me.
