So cool! Some of those trucks are still pretty cheap, it gets tempting to pick one up.

i went to get more pictures today. he was painting the front finders. i will go back in a week to get more. get a load of that belt. also the timing chain runs a shaft that runs the water pump that runs the generator that runs the distributor. then there is an oil level gauge. he said it was a 1945

Great band! I saw them in concert 2 years ago, with The Stray Cats, Pretenders, and ZZ Top. I went to see the Stray Cats, but REO was by far the best. Sorry to highjack! Just saw the title of the thread and had to check it out!
