@suedebear boy.. this video was done a year ago.. its SO not the same truck today.. if you've not seen it, check out an upload I did just 2 days ago I think.. called "rat rod heaven" anyway.. the so called "tow package" haha.. is not on at the moment.. but it soon will be! thanks for watching and commenting
I bought one allmost like it. Mine was a 1930 1.5 ton flatbed. Had been sittin in a field for 35 years. Had a 8 inch tree growing through the bed. Needless to say the tree sap n leaves got it. makin a rat rod out of it. No paint.
@1963impala2dr ya know anybody who wants to buy any of these parts I took off? I advertized them a few times..but no buyers. Ain't tryin to get rich, just don't want to haul them to the scrap yard. You hard to find parts,you know?
@1963impala2dr It is my first project. Ya I thought I was gunna jus slap another motor and at worst, another tranny in it and then haul ass! BOY was I wrong! I got 2600 dollers tied up in it,had it for 3 years now, and I STILL don't have it finished! Working for a living keeps gettin in the way ha ha ha ha !!
@waterwart hey ya ought to check out ol rpeek's video's. That old man sure knows how to put a touch on things. vintage coke box lid "IN" the trunk lid blew my mind. Cool lookin.
Oh lord, you gotta keep that ole "tow package" on your rig, i just love how they built that. a great bit of americana.
