my project and my thanks... 2 Attachment(s)
Guys, I am very new to the Model A "world" and as such have had to ask for a lot of advice. I am very appreciative to all that have offered their advice. In my opinion and from my experience with other years, the Model A guys have been the most helpful. THANK YOU!!!
Okay, so just a little background... truck was disassembled decades ago... I believe in the 1960s. That box on the back is the authentic RED STAR YEAST box. The body (metal) is amazingly solid. Seat cushions were long gone but a pair was sourced at a local swap. Tried my best to keep the reproduction parts utilized to the bare minimum. I believe this is gonna be a blast once ready to hit the streets. I have done very little restoration work on this project. Rather, my efforts have been mostly put towards making this a reliable and road worthy vehicle. Once it is one the road, I promise to post an update. This has thus far been a super fun project for me. A far cry from my typical concourse restorations (1939 / 1940) and as such, a lot less stressful :) |
Re: my project and my thanks... That is a super cool truck! Hope you have lots of fun with it!

Re: my project and my thanks... Looks very well built,Notice the body curves with the bottom of the cab.
You may find a small brass tag or something engraved on it. I would like to see some photos of the interior of the box, how it's put together. Wick |
Re: my project and my thanks... Be careful working on the truck and don't get a yeast infection.

Re: my project and my thanks... My kind of vehicle! No fussing and polishing.

Re: my project and my thanks... There is a lot to be said about running these old flivers whether they are restored or just good drivers. They are a lot of fun either way.

Re: my project and my thanks... Hi Kube:
You have a GEM. This is something you don't see very often. I agree 100%, make it safe to drive and keep it original. They are only original once. Welcome to the Mode A Hobby! |
Re: my project and my thanks... Sweet ride right there….
Lots of fun in the near future with this lil’ Ford. Enjoy ! |
Re: my project and my thanks... That’s an awesome truck. I love the patina.

Re: my project and my thanks... Wow Kube that turned-out nice! That had to be tough not to do your usual job though! Enjoy!!!

Re: my project and my thanks... Love the truck and I'm glad that it found a good home.
