You are about to bid on a Ferrari killer at any car show with this pickup. It starts, it runs, it goes down the road, it stops and is the center of attraction wherever I take it. If you don't want to be the center of attraction everywhere you go, then this Model A Ford Pickup is not for you. This is not a truck for restoration, but is a truck that has wonderful patina. In fact.....it is the king of patina. Beautiful!!I bought this pickup to win "best original car " at local car shows. As soon as you pull into the lot, the crowd forms. Seems everyone has a story to tell about a truck just like this one. Wonderful!Before driving the truck, I did the following improvements:Replaced the bed floor with a sold piece of steel and bolted it down.Replaced all the wood in the cab (see pics) and under the bed floor.Replaced the floorboards.Replaced the lower panel behind the seats.Replaced the steel floor under the seat riser.Replaced the steel seat riser.Replaced the spark plugs, distributor cap, points and installed a new carburetor.Stained all the new wood a dark brown.Replaced all 3 windows with new safety glass.Changed all fluids.All wheels have been trued and sandblasted. 5 new tubes replaced and installed in good tires.Replaced most structural bolts for cab/bed integrity.Replaced wiring harness for starter. While there are a few rust through holes, they are not structural. The frame and attachments are sound. There are a few items still to complete. They are:A new top over the cab needs to be installed. Since I only use the truck on nice days, I have grown to like the open feeling. My recommendation is to have a canvas snap on top made for the truck. This way, you can take the canvas top off on nice sunny days and snap the top on if it rains. The wiring harness for headlights/brake light needs to be replaced. Water pump packing needs replacing. End of season radiator flush should be done. Otherwise, the truck is good to go. Note that Connecticut is a non title state for all vehicles over 25 years of age, so all you will receive from me is a notarized bill of sale and nothing more. I have provided many pics that give you a good feeling of the quality of the improvements and the truck itself. I searched for a long time to find a completely unrestored Ford pickup. I did not want a restored version but one that would win shows. This is that 85 year old truck.Good luck bidding.
