That one was on CL last year in your area if I remember correctly. Not that far off from the Railway Express trucks if it was green with red wheels. Or white with red, yellow and blue balloons on it, as was original for Wonder Bread. I do remember that wonder bread 'helped build strong bodies 12 ways.'
Pretty sure "bidding ended" means that the truck did not sell before the bid ended. You can contact the seller and see if he is going to re-list it for bidding. Log into eBay and click on the sellers link. That truck appears to have a solid body but I would be concerned about what modifications were done to put that engine and tranny in it. Good luck in your search!
Thanks Joe. I will try do that. Hopefully he hasn't sold it yet and I will keep on looking for others. If you stumble over one yourself or hear from someone about this kind of truck please let me know? I will keep you and everybody else upposted.
Still, more tips are always welcome
You should look into having the steel body fabricated in Sweden. No shipping. The front post or A pillar looks like a 1/4 round cut from maybe 4" pipe. That square horizontal rib could be really strong with 1/8" wall square tubing. Looks like door jambs square tubing. Fill in with sheet metal. All flat, all square including the glass. Sweden has a long history with iron and steel work. You could get a really nice '40-'41 tonner with no bed from ss stan in Canada. He says he sells his trucks. So much easier to ship and the box would not need any repairs.
Thank's Truck dog for the tip! Nice truck! B Iut think that one is a little bit to heavy for the swedish law for how heavy a vehicle may be for the type of licence I have (and most of the swedes have). I think you call it 3/4 ton truck (but i'm not sure) but in sweden the weight is in kg(kilogram) not lbs and we have a limit of 3500 kg (around 7700lbs). Over that we have to take a special licence.
Thank you everybody for the tips! I really appreciate it! Any tip is still welcome! The weight has to be less than 7716lbs (swedish not-so-funny-laws). over 7716lbs you have to have a special driving license
Ken169 that truck didn't sell because it didn't meet the reserve price. So the guy still has it. By the looks of it that's a solid starting point. Doesn't look to have the rust killer going on.
I would try getting in contact with the seller through Ebay.
If you need some help with it I'm 8 hours away from there. There might be someone closer though.
Thank' you! Really appreciate it! I will sent him an E-mail.
