Folks, some say this is a diamond in the rust, well it will take several large diamonds to fix this up, the classic junk rod. It is a 1930/31 Model A Ford Pickup, recently on the EBay place, do not know if it sold, maybe Barrett/Jackson will pay a fortune for it!!

My dad and i just got done with the restoration on a 1932 Ford Model b pickup and i have been looking for another truck to restore or if its to far gone use as yard art. Can you tell me where this truck is? Thanks Greg 319-310-4155
Wow, how great is that?! Can anyone else see the beauty in this, please don't tell me I am the only one? I have an old black and white photo of a junkyard just full of these hanging over my kitchen sink. Everytime I look at it I notice something different and unique that I missed before. I absolutely love her and I would bring her home and make her mine!
This is what my husband does for a living. What I see is a money pit! More than likely you would have to have the fenders made, and it's been sitting you can't even see the floor or damage inside from sitting. This is just exterior work, then you need an engine, ect.. Now if someone had the time it would be great for passing time, but my husband always wants instant results. Cha ching. It is a project car for sure. I would tell my husband go and get one in working order.
I have all the parts needed to rebuild this to original, I've been collecting parts for 6 years to build a Model A Ford, a coat of black epoxy primer,a month of loving labor and this jewel would be rolling down the road.These old trucks are the best.
You are well on your way then!
