    After a 20 hr drive just got this home it's pretty clean for a ol truck. 1476.jpeg plans for it are clean up the wiring get the rear end lower add some 750 /16 tires and and juice brakes and I guess I better get it running a little better it starts but is starving for fuel should be simple to fix then drive the heck out of it

    Hot rod trucks are great because you can haul stuff with them.

    Thanks... I got it 5 years ago when my dad passed. I converted it to 12V, added juice brakes, and added the door lettering. It does have its issues though that I am always dealing with. I get MORE comments driving this around town than I do with my 32 or 36 roadster .... go figure.

    Very nice! I had one back in the early 60's and drove it to work daily for a couple of years-never let me down.

    Looks like it was definitely a worth while drive. A very nice looking truck. Congratulations.
