Default Re: New/Old Huckster body home at last !

Just an update on my huckster project. For those of you who have forgotten, this is a running chassis I bought on ebay combined with a wooden bed I bought from a fellow barner. It is a replica/restoration of a body made by Schurmier Whitney for a 28 A. I have decided to adapt this excellant bed into one of my dreams, a 31 Huckster/screenside delivery. I bought a cowl in Meyersdale, PA, a door at Carlisle, another door at Renningers, and misc. parts from all over, including some door parts and hinges from a barner in Washington state.
The doors are Briggs fordoor, which is just the proportion for what I wanted to achieve. I replaced the bottom wood and blasted the doors. They came out fantastic! Then I started the imposing job of marrying these parts together. I want it to look Semi Factory and cause guys to scratch their heads wondering why they have never seen a huckster with metal model A doors. Lots of work left, but I am enjoying every minute and can start to see the results .
