sold this truck to a photographer for a photo shoot set (after I removed the Merc Flattie) She really liked the patina....


I love the original faded green paint with the red primer showing through, but somone ruined the look by sanding the fenders...






pics from an auction I went to.





latest find







48 I bought and sold.





I got this parts truck for free.


and from my sisters wedding. this was in the field accross the hwy and I told them they had to get pictures in fron of it....

Its a 48-50 if I remember right?? plus its over 4 hours (one way) from me. besides it looked right at home tucked up under some trees just slowly melting into it's surroundings.

Maybe someday
