I acquired a 1929 truck conversion. The owner told me how farmers used to convert their sedans into trucks because they couldn't afford to buy a truck outright. The truck is complete but not running yet and I would really like to learn more about these if anyone has any info?

It appears to be all original except for the wheels and tires. The rear of the sedan was cut out and made into a short cab like a truck, then a box was added to the back. Looks to still have the original engine, tranny, rear-end. I think it is a unique piece but maybe it is just a cut up Model A with no value.

I know its tough to get an idea of the truck without a picture but I will post one when I get home, at work now.
