LOL, Phil, I didn't even notice the whitewalls until you mentioned them.

I was concentrating on how nice the truck looks and how nice all the sheetmetal looks.

Sweet ride and on this "A" the whitewalls look good! Kinda old school retro hot-rod. Still looks sharp and original.

Beautiful pickup! I'm piecing one together - one part at a time. Does the lower back panel bolt (rivet) directly to the floor frame rear cross member? The cab corners seem to nail to the wood uprights on either side but the corner bottoms just hang?? A close-up photo would be appreciated if you have one.

Thanks,
Jack

Nice job Phil. Thanks for all the help each time I call Berts (the #1 Model A parts store in the world!!!!)

The Whitewalls look good on your truck, just not mine

I love that truck, the flat finish is so cool! And although I like whitewalls, a truck is one place I would not have thought to use them. I think they look great!!!
