Re: 32 orignal model b pick ups
Too many have been "rodded." I sold one last year to a gent in mid continent.

Re: 32 orignal model b pick ups
I think I've seen as many restored stock or unrestored original ones as I have "rodded" ones. The rodders are actually saving trucks that would otherwise just continue to rust away in the "back 40".

Re: 32 orignal model b pick ups
Just a wild guess but I would say 50% were wrecked, worked to death or went to the WWII scrap drives. Another 25% or more had their motors changed to something that was more cheaper and had more power after the Model B motor died or was more cost to fix then it was worth. The remaining 25% or less is either in someones garage and not for sale, turned into a hot rod or has been parted out over the years.
That leaves very few to be original. This holds true I think for mostly anything before WWII. Again nothing to back this up, just my thoughts. |

Re: 32 orignal model b pick ups
On a recent thread, we saw many '33 and '34 Pickups shown by the members.Someone with a 32 should start another thread with their picture and see how many show up. Byron.

Re: 32 orignal model b pick ups
They are still out there,but you have to get out an beat the bushes to find them.
This 32 pickup belongs to my friend Dan and was purchased through an estate in North Carolina,about 10 years ago and still has it and drives it a lot. And this one belongs to my friend Steve,he bought this original 32 pickup in Pigeon Forge,Tenn. this past September.HRP

You need to include your general location in your post and in your profile. If you buy a high end, expensive classic it is worth shipping it across the country. A '32 pickup should be purchased close to home. If I knew you were in Southern California I would go out of my way to follow up any leads I might find, but if you are in Florida it would be wasting my time. Charlie Stephens |
