Surfing on the internet with my 7 yr old grand son and we googled for 1929 Model A pickups for sale. My grand son claims ownership to the '29 Pickup I have and is quite an authority on Model As in general, (have 5 of them) as is his 11 Yr old brother. Saw this ad and pulled it up
https://www.cruisinclassicsinc.com/1...ckup-c-497.htm First thing he said is that it is not a 1929, but a 30-31, when we got to the engine compartment he saw the indented firewall and said go back to the top. I have read many statements asking what is the future of our hobby with the younger generation, I feel that with young ones like mine the future is bright. 1929 Coupe, '29 CCPU. '30 AA SWB DRW, '31 LWB DRW, '31 Tudor |

That is a sharp-eyed kid.
Not to nitpick, but wouldn't that have had a black grill shell when it left the factory? It is a mighty nice truck. Ken

I agree. Roll 'em as you like 'em - thin and wispy or fat and ugly.

Yea, I know where Idabel is. Went to church camp at Beaver's Bend when I was a kid several hundred years ago.
I don't roll pasta OR biscuits. I was expecting to be asked "joints or ladies". |

It is nice down there.
Fresno, eh? As Will Rogers once said, "During the dust bowl many Okies migrated to California. Raised the intelligence level of both states." ![]() |
