Maybe the North Eastern guys will be able to do something before the really cold days set in. Like next week, right? grin

Hi,

Very cool depot hack! We'd love to hear about any history you have with the truck and see more pics!!

Consider creating a Stovebolt Gallery for him here: 1935 and older Truck Gallerys. My two trucks reside there. ;-)

BTW, I know a guy who has a complete 1933 engine that he's willing to give away, but you'll have to arrange for pickup or shipping. He lives in Piedmont, CA (across the bay from San Francisco).

Cheers, Dean
