    Found this, too far from me so I'm sharing. Looks like a good start to a project. $25 with no reserve...sounds like a winner

    there ya go Zman...too good a deal to pass up even if it needs a floor and lower body. Hell, I've never ran across ANY 30's cab that cheap. The doors are worth $25

    by the way, best I can tell it's a Mopar. Looks like a Plymouth or Dodge cab. Not sure' of course, but I know it aint a Chevy and I dont think its a Ford. May be a S2D though... Hell, there were so many independents in that era that it could anything.

    go ahead and bid, Personally if I knew another Hamber was bidding I'd not announce to the world that I was bidding against them, Just my opinion... But you do what you gotta do....

    Hey I'm just trying to help out a friend and fellow Hamber that has a chassis and a Hemi, all he needs is a body, and if I threw this his way he'd stay away from the fiberglass T bodies...

    Thought it might be a Dodge, but it doesn't match any photos in "The Dodge Story". You may want to ask the seller if it is a cutdown sedan body made into a truck cab.

    May not be a Mopar then...hmmm. Nothing to keep it from being a Federal, Sanford, Kenworth, or other high wheel truck. Could even be a Seagraves or Ahrens-Fox fire truck cab
    Hell, I wouldnt care myself. Stick it on a frame with a hemi and call it a Dickfer [​IMG]

    I know you're not going to ask whats a Dickfer...

    Looks to me that it is a long door 32 pick em up of the Ford variety. Possibly made out of a 32 sedan. Looks kinda like a 32 version of the Corn Fed 29 long door p/u.

    Did any body jump on this deal? Sounds like gas would cost more to get it than the purchase price.

    Well, I don't absolutely need it right now, but that thing is about 2.5 hours from here - it would be just too easy to go get it!
     
  24. Did anyone here buy the thing ? [​IMG]

    I bought it. Can't find anything like that around hear. I intend to convert it back into a 2dr sedan. I have a back half already albiet in sad shape. I completed building an english wheel the other night so I thought this would be a good project. Usually I start with less.
