Default Re: What did you do today that was flathead V8 related?

Brian and GB, Yes I bought it. Sitting for at least 40 years. All original but very well used. Half of the rear fenders are missing, etc. It is a vey early truck with the B serial number in the 8,000s. I went to dig it out of the mud yesterday to prepare it to be removed from the lean to. I figured the brakes would be frozen, the steering locked, and the transmission a solid chunk of rusty gears. Happily the brake shoes had been removed, the trans shifted, the steering column was not locked, and 3 of the tires on the model A wheels actually held air. It acts like it wants to be liberated from its captivity. Will pick it up in a week or two. Fun Fun Fun!

who bets it will run?
