Default Keep on Truckin'!

I've lusted after one of these for years, and never could afford a finished one or find a decent builder. Well, the timing was right, as I was able to trade my 31 pickup for this '41:

I have a good used flattie and trans for it. Thinking about a column shift as I have the bits.

It came with a banjo on parallel leafs, pressure checked radiator, rebuilt front end, upholstered seat, all the door innards, and most importantly very little rust. Body has been media blasted, only needs floor repair and minor cab corner work. Also came with an extra bed and a complete, core, 59AB and tranny.

Plans are daily driver type for the immediate future.

I have some spare coupe pieces like bumpers, headlight doors, hubcaps, steering wheel, etc.

Right now it needs glass, windshield inner trim and divider, spare tire bracket, tail lights and brackets if anyone has extras.

Can't start on it just yet as the 32 is still in progress.

Well, that needs some attention. Two or more owners back, in an attempt to get that stance, most of the front leaves were removed from the stock axle, and the rear lowering blocks have it sitting on the snubbers. Bet that it would ride nice like that!

I have a dropped axle and reversed eye spring for the front, and some shorter blocks for the rear.
