Default 33 Panel
I went to a local swap meet here in Georgia and found this panel. I needed another project like I need a hole in my head but couldn't pass it up, I've never seen one before. It was a Grand Union Tea Company delivery back in its day and even has a few wooden crates in the back labeled the same. Someone has taken it off the frame and blasted/painted the frame but that's as far as they got, its pretty solid and had been in a barn for many years. I saw they only made 1040 standard panels and 916 deluxe, so there probably aren't that many out there. Just thought I'd share it and see what you guys thought.

Nice find, it would look very cool to have the original tea company graphics back on it.

Congratulations on your find. Here is a one year newer similar vintage 1934 Ford Panel Delivery i saw in Michigan. It is "barn fresh" and even the little Critter is trying to escape.
