What did you trade for a Model A?

[Tom Wesenberg]

Back in the mid-1960's, I traded a Model T go-kart for the running gear to go under our '29 Mail Truck. The chassis has since been powder coated, and all components rebuilt/restored. However, I soon realized that we have a 7-foot tall garage door, and the Mail Truck, when completed, will be just over 7-feet tall, so ... until I can get a taller garage access, the running gear and truck floor is all that will currently fit in the garage (although vertical wood pieces have been cut, just not installed). My nephew recently added onto his garage replete with an 8-foot tall garage door, so he will probably wind up being the custodian for this old gentleman once we can figure a way to get around his '28 rpu and '31 slant window fordor.

My neighbor jacked up his 2 car garage and added a row of cement blocks all the way around to add the needed height for a handicap van.

Much too much money, but my wife REALLY wanted it. She also said she will drive it one day.
