    All of the wheels are in line with each other. It must just look wierd in the picture


    I have made a deal to swap this for a 28-29 pickup! Exactly what I wanted!
    So I am happy!

    Found this while going through some old issues of The Restorer and thought of this thread. It was restored by Dale Campbell of Everett WA, and belonged to Larry Campbell back in 82.

    Those are actually very high dollar cars if they're left alone and restored correctly (there was one for sale for around 60K not long ago)...I'd pull it out and sell the thing if I were you!

    The door is cut higher so it will clear the track.

    I have already found someone looking for parts, he is going to trade me a 28-29 pickup. Exactly what I have been looking for!
    But what an adventure! Went walking through the thick silent snowy woods and all of a sudden I see this! The guy said it was used for a moss tractor. And someone just sold one more complete than this out of my town! So I think there might be a few more like it sitting real close! So Stay tuned!!!

    yes, you definitely have a 31 cowl with 28-29 rear body half, if you have a 28-29 cowl and doors, then grab this thing, you'll have a complete sedan!! :cool:

    ^^ What?
    Its not worth allot of money the way it sits. Unles someone has ski's and tracks. But there should be allot of good parts someone can use off of it if they were restoring one.

    Check Rufus ranch on here as they have one for sale. It's worth more money than you think.

    Thanks, I will go pick one up. I got ahold of Rufus ranch 1/2 hour after I bought this one. But the parts that are expensive and hard to find are the tracks and ski's. Niether of wich I have.
