My new 1939 Sedan Delivery!
Thought you guys might enjoy seeing what we picked up today...
I heard that this 39 Sedan Delivery was listed on Craigslist about a month ago. I waited a few days before calling as I'm pretty broke... wanted to be sure I could work out buying it if it was nice. Called and looked at it on a weekday evening... 4 days after seeing the add! 4 days!!! I'm not usually able to have that much restraint... but recently buying a house has given me a different perspective... Originally the '39 was bought by a laundromat in Sunbury, PA... then sold to the Stahl family to use for their farm's produce deliveries. In 1948 with just under 62,000 miles. Mr Stahl got married and his new wife wasn't excited about living on the farm. So the Delivery was parked in the shed... where it sat till recently. The shed roof leaked and rotted off the drivers rain gutter and inturn the whole bottom of the drivers door... otherwise it has some dings dents and surface rust... but all in all its really solid, especially for PA. The only thing I could find missing was the rear door lock cylinder... Before going to look at the '39 I asked my girlfriend what she thought. Her reply "Its no Divco but its pretty nice"... you see.. she LOVES Divco milk trucks... Well... I get to the guys house to look at the '39... and wouldn't you know... theres a mini Divco sitting in his yard! Needless to say... I made an offer on both...and we agreed on a price... A few STRESSFULL weeks of working out a time to meet up to transfer the title.... and now they're home sweet home! boy this thing is little!! Sorry for the Chevy truck... had a friend haul these for me... stuffed in!
