Interesting, Tim. The company is/was out of Waco. Pretty neat!

That’s what appealed to me the most about this truck, Bill. Zero rot. I’ve never seen that in an AD truck. They always have something rotted. Cab corners and fender pockets are just a simple bowl to trap dirt which leads to mud which leads to a big hole!

I can tell you that ain’t happening here, Mitch. New wheels/tires show up Monday so I can get it back on the road. Three of the original rims were cracked, so I have to get new ones. Safety first!

More pics next week!

Now, how to get it into MCACN…

Cheers
Dave

That's interesting that the wheels are cracked..are they riveted ?
I'm sure with your connection to Bob, it would have a place in barn finds. Maybe use it as a stage prop to give a welder away to a young builder ?
The '52 I bought out of CO had no rust either, as you said, very unusual, but very pleasant to work on compared to the rust buckets we have up here.
