33 Panel
I went to a local swap meet here in Georgia and found this panel. I needed another project like I need a hole in my head but couldn't pass it up, I've never seen one before. It was a Grand Union Tea Company delivery back in its day and even has a few wooden crates in the back labeled the same. Someone has taken it off the frame and blasted/painted the frame but that's as far as they got, its pretty solid and had been in a barn for many years. I saw they only made 1040 standard panels and 916 deluxe, so there probably aren't that many out there. Just thought I'd share it and see what you guys thought.

Re: 33 Panel
Nice find, it would look very cool to have the original tea company graphics back on it.

Re: 33 Panel
Congratulations on your find. Here is a one year newer similar vintage 1934 Ford Panel Delivery i saw in Michigan. It is "barn fresh" and even the little Critter is trying to escape. |
