'39 big pickup

[Clem Clement]

Seen this big 39 pickup on ebay? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1939...-PICKUP-NORES-/220649251405?pt=US_Cars_Trucks

I saw one at Hershey a few years back. The truck is big. I love it, but apparently no one else does.

[Frank The Plumber]

I like it, seems like a great price.

Sweet 1 ton. I like it.

May be big and heavy but I see he drilled the front axle to help the weight some. I'd take it.

I'd like to see more of the studebaker in b/ground of one of the pictures

Are the bumper protection brackets correct or are they Chebby?

No offense to the 2/4 tonners, but I sure like the 3/4 and 1 ton expresses.

Those big trucks are great. Did they make a lot of them?

Here's some pictures of a 36' that I always thought was incredible.

Goofy 17" stretch ring split rims can be changed to a tubeless outer rim on a cut down center. This one was originally a wrecker with 60 HP and 6.66 gears. Now it's an 8RT with a later rearend with the original hubs. Those caps and fat radials are too cool

 

[Lamar Wadsworth]

Hard to imagine using a 60 in a wrecker, but with 6.66 gears, I guess anything will pull if you gear it low enough.

Sometimes I am a little dense, but what is "drilled front axle" about?

In the ebay listing enlarge the fourth picture and notice the holes drilled in the front axle web.

Not true!!! The judges at the Uptown Whittier, CA Car Show showed their appreciation of my ugly duckling (1940 Tonner) by voting it Best of Show and Best Truck. It was selected for this award from the 600+ vehicles present including some heavy duty iron. Beauty is skin deep as they say.

Went to the 24th Annual Barrington Old Truck Meet (A.T.C.A.) today with my little truck. Saw this really nice '39 dually.

That must be an aftermarket bed?? I sure like the B80 series Mack in the background!!
