    They were signifigantly smaller.
    Next time you're in an antique shop
    check out the clothes, they're tiny.

    I am pretty sure that Model A truck or 32-34 for that matter look much cooler with fenders...PERIOD. I think that they look very utilitarian with everything in place and not much is need besides a dropped axle and some juice brakes. Bob Bleeds old truck is the one that really got me Jones-ing for these trucks (even though his was a '34).

    I love that truck, fortunately for me, it's here in town now!
    "THE DAVE GALE TRUCK"? He actually built a few like this, all of 'em sat just right (like this one), sweet!

    Mr. Norm of Grand Spalding Dodge in Chicago. His full name is Norm Krause. I believe that is the correct spelling.

    Paint on this truck is a Sherwin Williams product. Basecoat/Clearcoat. Regular black basecoat with a eggshell Clearcoat. My first truck was a Dave Gale truck. I had PPG DP-90 on it. Looks good for a couple of years but begins to oxidise after that. That's why I dicided to go with a Flatend clear. Usually clear is just a UV protecter.
     
  17. Personally I prefer 'em this way.
