Look in the black Bruce McCulley book on page 409.

You guys have gotten past my working knowledge of this... at about reply number 7... Are you saying this was originally a Roadster that some one converted to a truck or that this was a factory/dealer conversion?
Thanks again.

When purchased new you can buy a (pickup) with a Box in the back and no reveal in the seat panel or you can purchase a car (runabout) with a trunk (turtle deck) and a Box that can be put in it's place when the trunk is removed and use it as a pickup as yours seams to be set up as. Some how the trunk (turtle deck) has been lost. I hope this explains it. JMHO !!!!

Oil spot is NOT from the Model T...

My brother was in the exact same boat as you. He was owed money and got a T huckster as payment. He called me and asked me the same questions as you and like you he tastes were muscle cars. Well after a quick lesson in driving he was so intrigued with how it started and how the transmission worked, how you really drive a T and your not just a passenger that steers, etc, he kept the truck and goes to shows with it instead of his other cars. Drive it around a little, as with my brother, it may grow on you!

What's your location & would a trade from the 70's be an option? PM me if interested.

brutalone · 03-17-2013, 07:07 PM

I have it stored in Nineveh Indiana. 46164 is the zip. I might take a partial trade but cash is king... Email will work best....

How much cash?

brutalone · 03-19-2013, 08:30 AM

As far as "how much cash" that is part of what I am trying to determine with this thread. I would accept a fair cash offer, but I don't need to short sell it....

phat rat · 03-19-2013, 08:45 AM

So after 2 weeks you still can't figure a price and you want offers. Sounds like an auction to me.

yachtsmanbill · 03-19-2013, 09:39 AM

First offer here... ONE THOUSAND, FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS in fresh 10s and 20s! Ill be there at 10 a.m. tomorrow! ws

phat rat · 03-19-2013, 11:40 AM

I'll up you $500 and pay in $100 bills, less bulk.

brutalone · 03-19-2013, 01:25 PM

I am not trying to piss anyone off and not trying to auction it... I have not even gotten it fully cleaned up and ready for sell... I was just saying that I am not hurting or in a hurry, but I would accept a fair offer....
I do appreciate all the info you guys have given me.

yachtsmanbill · 03-19-2013, 03:27 PM

In all honesty, you oughta throw out some kind of figure. How about a trade on my '26 hot rod... its all new down to the rubber!

"I'll up you $500 and pay in $100 bills, less bulk."

Ill up it 500 more and do paypal right now! ws

I'll match that and I could be there tomorrow with trailer and $100 bills. That just might trump Paypal for him as he couldn't get the money transferred into another account for 3-4 days. LOL

yachtsmanbill · 03-19-2013, 10:54 PM

Just think of all the trouble of double side copying on the laser printer. Id print them upside down just to mess with 'em. Then theres the quality paper you need... too many logistics! ws

brutalone · 03-20-2013, 09:26 AM

I probably would not turn down 10 grand cash... 5s 10s 20s 100s.... as long as there are no 50s.... they are bad luck.

yachtsmanbill · 03-20-2013, 09:45 AM

I wouldnt turn dowm 10K either! How about a certified 1930 $5,000.00 gold note rated as "uncirculated"? ws

Jack Innes · 03-20-2013, 11:53 AM

Bill is just about where this truck should be priced. Pristeen, restored, up & running 26/27 RPU vehicles seem to be selling at around $12,000. This one could take half that or more to be in the same category.

brutalone · 03-23-2013, 08:37 AM

I was going through some past auction from last Summer and found Pristine models going for 20 grand plus.... Seems even if it took 6 grand to put this one right and 10 grand to buy it... would still leave a 4 grand margin....
As soon as I get a good warm weekend, I will roll it out and clean it up, and see what shakes out at the local shows.
Thanks for the info and the 5k offers but seems like I could part it out for more than that.
