Hot Rods 29 model a pickup

finally got this a few days ago - for the time being ill make it road worthy and preserve its charactor
runs - needs brakes and some other stuff such as the piece of visor that was lost some where bettween montana / new mexico...-peace all
ill add a pic of my 65 f100

 

looks like lots of fun to me ! nice truck, i have a couple stock A's. the 65's a dandy too. had a 63 for many years and was sad from the day i sold it. have fun!

 

Interesting cab, never saw one like that. A lot of cars were made in to pickups over the years, looks fairly well done.

 

the guy i got this from thinks the top was from a coupe and from the looks of it he's probly rite

 

put the back window in and put an old ignition swt in from my superglide set the points and timing - starts rite up now rebuild the carb and start on the brakes - 48 star flag is fitting

 

Hot rod 6 is looking good bro!

that truck runs like a champ luv driving it - front brakes and a stuck exhaust valve on the 29 today

 

did brakes caved and painted wheels plus PBR shift knob

 

first start up after i got valve free was a bit smokey pic is after smoke had cleared a few min. and of course i had to back truck out for ceremonial drive up and down street

 

keep on truckin!! looks like a red "AR" steering wheel?

 

waiting on parts so i figured I'd address the conundrum of the missing visor
found this drug testing sign that was liberated from a group of rowdy drunken bikers
they are some of the best people...fit in place real good so a few screws and some flat black and dun is dun

 

did some front end work - drag link & tie rod - new seals greez'd up adjusted
steering box looked good - next up is new sneakers - so simple..so eazy...luv it

 

waiting on the new rubber .. on the way but stuck some where in frozen Texas .. in the mean time replaced the wood in the bed. could have gone and got nice new planks but no...found some ready willing and eager weathered 4x4s in my own back yard. ripped them down to size add some carriage bolts and dun .. had 2 hooks and some rusty chain and the bed gait is good to go!

 

finally got the tires hot dog! - mounted and front end alignment all set - this old relic is running like a top and ready for the road! - thats the good news - the NM mvd is about 3months behind so it may be june when its on road...bummer - in the mean time i cleanded up the mess and going to start a new one

cheers every one!

 

I really like the roof line

 

roof was put on with slotted pk screws and gas weld - no idea what its off of guy I bought truck from thinks its from a coupe but who knows...
