The high roof and the low roof. the high roof for sure had wood in it. I'm not positive about the low roof. Someone else should be along that can answer that question though. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 1,820 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 1,820 | The low roof cab, that looks very much like a 37-38 cab did have a small amount of wood in the cab. The cab sat on blocks of wood on the frame and there was some wood bracing under the dash and in the hinge side of the door jambs. By 1937, all that was left was the wood blocks that the cab sat on.

Haven't been over to look at it yet. If the wood is in good shape I may make him an offer.

an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.
