Finding an old truck.

Hey everyone, I've just turned 18 and I'm looking for a model t or a truck for my dad who's 50 years old, and possibly one for me. I have no clue on where to start looking for a restorable truck here in south eastern MN. I'm willing to go a ways away to find a reasonably clean truck, could anyone help me? I don't realy want to spend too much money on either trucks, but will if I have to.

Try places such as Hemming's Motor News, eBay, Old Car Trader. Check your local bookstore, they should have Hemming's and an Old Car trader. Not sure how your area is, but contact some car clubs, see if they know of any antique car swap meets around, many times they will have a section for cars for sale. If no swaps, at least contacting the clubs could get you leads on a vehicle. Let them know that you are looking for a Model T, they might be able to help you find one.

I have always found them by asking people I hnow if they know of any. Or just driving around and looking for then sitting in fields, or back yards. The local green sheet can also be a great source.

Good Luck
