Hi my name is Jeff Bagley, and I'm from Hilltown, PA outside Philadelphia. This truck was acquired by my Dad, Jerry Bagley, around 1974 and restored by him on weekends with a little help from his 5 boys. The restoration was finished around 1977. It was purchased off a farm north of Scranton, PA from (we believe) the original owners family. This would make it a two family truck. Dad left us in 1987 and the truck mostly sat in my garage until 2005, when I decided it was time to honor Dad and his truck with a restoration. Some things were not correct the first time around, so I spent a lot of time reading, looking at pictures, and asking questions. I really wanted the truck to be as close to original as possible, with a few departures from original to honor Dad. These include his own design bolt on rear shock mounts that allow the use of a modern rear shock while not impacting the conversion back to knee action shocks, a really cool original style tailgate that is a much heavier handmade version, and finished bed boards as he liked the look. Anyway it was painted its original Brewster Green color by Kevins Car Shop of Cleona, PA. I have also added some factory accessories like the glove box door with clock and ash tray. I also have collected some nice aftermarket period correct parts like a tropic air heater, windshield deice plate, defrost fan, etc...I will post more pics as I finish up some of the last small details.
