Is this some sort of remote setup where the truck is operated from the cab above the Dodge? Which, btw...appears to be from this Dodge.

In reality, there was such a thing, cuz I've seen this arrangement before, so I doubt this pic was photoshopped.

Upper: 1947/48 Buick Super 4dr / 1949 Pontiac Club Coupe.

Lower: 1949 Olds 98 4dr / 1949 Dodge 4dr / What looks like a 1947/48 Chevy Club Coupe.

Parked behind the transporter is a 1949 Pontiac Sedanet (fastback), beyond the Pontiac, 1949/50 ChryCo vehicle.

After WWII ended, white wall tires were unobtainable thru at least 1946. Then unobtainable 1951/52, during the Korean War.

the front bumper of the car is on the engine. where are the brake clutch, and steering etc hooked up? picture is very shadowy but especially dark around the cab of that truck. I say it's photoshopped..


on the other hand here is one that's not photochopped, I though I had posted these pictures here but didn't see them, apologies if they are already here somewhere.




Gives new meaning to headache rack.

There was a hollowed out redwood "camper" mounted on a Nash or Jeffrey Quad featured in an older "Vintage Truck" magazine. I believe it is in a museum in CA.

I appologize to everyone if i upset you with my picture. I read odd ball pictures and guess i missed it had to be a ford truck only since i saw abunch of other thing besides a ford truck on this post. Hey dick relax take a blood pressure pill. Why are your panties in such a bunch you are the only one who seemed to care i posted my picture. Go back over to the h.a.m.b. and tell eveyone how to build there rides there. By the way you dont know me. You dont know what i will contribute to this board i see what you contribute to the board, (removed by fabmandelux) I have built two cover trucks one on Truckin, one on classic trucks. Sorry guys!

Well Dick ain't the only one you have upset on here with this last post. I doubt you will get to post many more without an attitude adjustment.

There are many here with other than Ford running gear. But none of them have ever thrown it in our face in such a childish way. That would be a goodby smiley
