Shove-it-up-and-let-it-lay powertrain...dropped front axle, wheels are too far away to ID...

ya know, if I was to sell something like this, I'd take a better picture from somewhere closer than the street...wonder what the owner is trying to hide?

$13900 ?? I think he forgot the decimal point. I'll add one $139.00

Im guessing Bill, that it probably has some crappy bodywork done on it. Ive seen a few guys down here try to sucker in people by taking far away pictures. Who knows, maybe its nothing though!

All I know is i love those 49's.

Is it from a full moon, lack of ozone layer or what?
Or maybe cause they forgot to ask what motor was in it and bought it that way.....

Asking 14 grand, might come down to 10, then it'll take another 5 to fix all the wrongs. If it ain't stock, I no buy 'em....cause you never know what's what. Ppl make all these mods, and don't make notations of what all the parts come from...then some poor sap buys it and hasn't a klew...

Very true. If you start with a stock truck, and do the modifications, and everything yourself, you know its done to your quality standards.

It wouldn`t be quick, I had a look when it was parked beside the 65 Mustang.
The 289 would fit with a shortened water pump shaft but half the Model T would have to come apart from the lack of room to work on it.

I`d prefer a 255 Flattie except I don`t have the Flattie or the time.
There`s afew projects ahead of this and some don`t run.
