HERES A REALLY ODD ONE! ITS NOT REALLY A BARN FIND ITS A BEHIND THE BARN FIND. 1926? STEWART TRUCK THAT WAS SHORTENED UP AND MADE INTO A "DOODLEBUG" USED FOR PLOWING SNOW. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A STEWART BEFORE AND DONT KNOW MUCH ABOUT THEM SO ANY INFO WOULD BE APPRECIATED. FROM MY INTERNET SEARCH I GUESS THESE WERE MADE IN BUFFALO, NY(30 MILES NORTH OF ME). IT HAS A FLATHEAD SIX ENGINE THAT TURNS FREELY. I WAS TOLD BY THE FELLOW I GOT IT FROM THAT IT WAS RUNNING A COUPLE YEARS AGO AND DOES LOOK LIKE IT WILL RUN. I DONT KNOW WHAT MAKE THE MOTOR IS BUT IT SAYS SWAN MANIFOLD PATENTED 4.28.25 ON THE INTAKE IF THIS HELPS IN IDENTIFICATION. THE TRANS DOES SHIFT THRU THE GEARS AND CLUTCH SEEMS TO WORK WHEN WE TOWED IT AROUND THE YARD. IT DOES ROLL EASILY. I WILL LET THE PICTURES DESCRIBE THE REST. IF YOU HAVE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ABOUT ANY PART OF IT JUST E-MAIL ME THRU EBAY AND I WILL GET BACK TO YOU ASAP. I DONT HAVE ANY PAPERWORK BUT WILL PROVIDE A BILL OF SALE. A $500.00 DOLLAR DEPOSIT IS REQUIRED 48 HOURS FROM AUCTION END. I WILL STORE IT FOR 45 DAYS AFTER THE SALE PROVIDED ITS PAID IN FULL. I CAN ASSIST WITH LOADING BUT ANY SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS ARE YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. I DO ENCOURAGE YOU TO COME AND INSPECT THIS BEFORE YOU BID. PLEASE NO ZERO BIDDERS. 5/28- A FEW QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS I HAVE RECIEVED WILL NOT POST SO I WILL TRY TO ANSWER A FEW. SOMEBODY SAID THIS ENGINE WAS A 40 HP CONTINENTAL AND THAT THESE WERE STANDARD ON THE 3/4 TON AND UP MODELS. THE REAR END HAS SQUARE AXLE TUBES AND WHEN THEY SHORTENED THE CHASSIS THEY WELDED A PLATE ON EACH TUBE AND BOLTED THESE PLATES TO THE FRAME SO IT IS SOLID MOUNTED. THE TRUCK HAS ALL THREE GAUGES IN PLACE BUT THE CLUSTER GLASS IS BROKEN. THE TRUCK HAS AN "OPEN" DRIVESHAFT,NOT A TORQUE TUBE. THE DRIVESHAFT HAS BEEN SHORTENED. THE WHEELS ARE 20". THANKS FOR THE COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS, PETER.
