Re: Model A Huckster Group
I removed the black paint from the bed of my Huckster and gave it a few coats of sealer. I've been meaning to do this since I bought her.

Re: Model A Huckster Group
Mark, don't know about the body style. But it sure looks like a good thing to have in a huckster body. I sometimes wish I had more room behind my seat.
Welcome to the group.

Re: Model A Huckster Group
I started with this (picture 1). When I dragged it home I was told I was nuts as well! They were all mighty impressed when I finished! (picture 2). Take your time and stay the course. It will be worth it in the end.

Re: Model A Huckster Group
Very interesting thread. Went back and read every one of the 207 post. I have started a Huckster/truck/ c cab version. It is not perzactly a Huckster but I hope youse guys don't osterize me for it. Made from left over parts. 28 truck cab and hood. 30 fenders. and whatever I can find to clean out the shop. here are some pix and a crude drawing showing where it is headed. C cab 'cause doors are expensive.

My (new type) huckster was patterned after ones that were built back in the 30's by a York-Hoover company.

Re: Model A Huckster Group
Somebody said that if a person joins the Model A Ford Huckster group that the wearing of a Donald Trump hair wig is mandatory.

Re: Model A Huckster Group
Capt, don't know is I should laugh or see this as an insult.. But a good wig for me would take care of a possible sunburn if it ever stops raining in good old Portland.

Re: Model A Huckster Group
Oldhippie,
Where was the picture taken? I would guess Old Town Salinas, CA, since the sign read "Steinbeck Restaurant." David Serrano |

Re: Model A Huckster Group
Most of them were originally painted green and not clear varnish.
