Nice looking truck you are making great progress. When I saw you called it new I was hoping you went as new as I did. The roadster pickup is all reproduction parts with an automatic transmission. I did use an original engine because Terry Burtz hasn't finished the new Model A engine.

Just new to me, mostly old parts that had been rejected by others.

Just for the record. This truck is now running the Model A 4 cylinder engine. I sold the 239 V8. I did make a intake for the 4 cylinder and it is using a 239 Ford V8 carb. Runs very strong. It also has 7-1 BF head, big intake valves, counter balanced crank. Also it is running a F150 4 speed transmission with overdrive now.

I sold the V8. It is being used in a 1930 coupe.
