Guys, I am very new to the Model A "world" and as such have had to ask for a lot of advice. I am very appreciative to all that have offered their advice. In my opinion and from my experience with other years, the Model A guys have been the most helpful. THANK YOU!!!
Okay, so just a little background... truck was disassembled decades ago... I believe in the 1960s.
That box on the back is the authentic RED STAR YEAST box.
The body (metal) is amazingly solid. Seat cushions were long gone but a pair was sourced at a local swap.
Tried my best to keep the reproduction parts utilized to the bare minimum.
I believe this is gonna be a blast once ready to hit the streets.
I have done very little restoration work on this project. Rather, my efforts have been mostly put towards making this a reliable and road worthy vehicle.
Once it is one the road, I promise to post an update.
This has thus far been a super fun project for me. A far cry from my typical concourse restorations (1939 / 1940) and as such, a lot less stressful
