Thanks for the kind words... I try to update it daily, but when I don't I make up for it with multiple posts the next day.

It's not real polished or high hat, but it's pure Vintage Ford!

My first rig was a 280A like the one pictured on the site above with "Zenith Rhythm Kings" written on the side of the vehicle. I got it when I was 14, had it for about 3 or 4 years. Didn't really know what I had at the time!

Gary, I looked at the site but only saw 'pre-judging' photos. That's really cool that it's the same truck!

What a beautiful vintage style picture!!

Re: Model A commercial vehicles picture thread!!
 

The image is a 1931 dealer's promotional shot. Perhaps another Fordbarner will know where it was taken?

John,

Pretty sure that photo was taken at the Louisville, KY Assembly plant. I bought the same photo from Bratton's a few years back.

A beer truck?

John Butts in CT 01-08-2011 10:08 PM

Re: Model A commercial vehicles picture thread!!
 

That's a beer advertising truck, alright, with what appears to be a powerful sound system. Here's a larger image. Blatz resumed brewing beer in 1933, after the 21st Amendment was ratified. I wonder whether this truck was created in 1933, on a 1931 pickup chassis, to proclaim the event? Note the custom paint job (light fenders) and, despite the extreme customization, whitewall tires.

Let's take a brief detour to Denmark to see a sharp rig with disc wheels and bright headlamps and radiator shell.
