The slant 3 window Coupe does exist. It was on display at the MAFCA Queen Mary national meet in 1976. I believe that it is still here in SoCal.
 
Yep seen it …prototype not production
I’d considered building one but life is getting by! Won’t happen
 
I agree, those Town Cars are very scarce. Another one that is hard to come by is the Fridgadare pickups. But there were more of them.

Probably the Travelers Wagon. Only recreations are known to exist.

Yup. 1931 only - less than a dozen built and no known survivors.

Equipped with everything the intrepid explorer needed - folding bed, storage chest, overhead water tank (fill spout on roof), folding wash pan, and screens with curtains in the rear. It also had locking doors with roll-up windows in the front ones.

easier to buy a 32 3 window old blue............


Easier on the back and billfold to do without either……that dream was when I was 50!
 
There exists a single, very grainy photo of a slant windshield DeLuxe Pickup. Like the Locke Ness Monster, there have been sightings......

Looking at random blue prints at the Ford Achieves, I found a print for a wiring harness to install Town Car Delivery side lamps on a DeLuxe Pickup.

Amazing hobby that keeps on giving....
 
When I was daydreaming of cloning a 3 window….
It was noted the rear clip is far different than Model A. More like a 32 which could be since it’s a slant and late in A production

it is always easier to go through life doing nothing.........


sometimes I wish I was geared that way.

That would be nice! I have 30 years of backlog if I get it all done!! It’s been that way for 20 years. I used to do full resto but have reduced size of projects. And it had been part time until 18 mos ago
And I’m 74! Old legs and back just won’t work like the did at 40!!
If I live and take nothing new….I’ll be 103 when caught up!!
Wheeew
 
OlBlue,

Nope, you have become too talented & knowledgeable

Remember when a quart of Rustoleum and a cheap brush could restore a Model A rear axle ??
 
There is/was a 1931 slant windshield in the Wisconsin Automotive Museum in Hartford, Wisconsin. Sign says that it was one of six built for General Electric. I have two grainy photos of it that I took in 2004.

Looking at their website, there is a photo in the Gallery that shows the front of the slant windshield Deluxe Pickup. (https://wisconsinautomuseum.com/showroom-gallery/)

By the way, I should note that this museum is located in the building where Kissel automobiles were manufactured. It is located about 30 miles north of Milwaukee. It is a jewel of a car museum.
