Default Re: Looking for '38 and '39 Tonner Owners - Current or Past

A buddy got this from the Rochester area as a basket case was told it was a 60 hp wrecker ( 1 ton 60 ...why??) excellent sheet metal no motor but some included
We restored with a 8BA and a 39 granny trans I had went like a snail. I painted with a tractor supply IH red and wheels were modified to radial rims
He was born the same year and hated to work under the skinny hood standing onhis head so we did a tilt front end
It’s now mine,got some winter use ( only thing that would start at 5 degrees in westNY) so needs rust repair now.plan to re-do next spring. Still slow as a snail,must address if I keep it
