I have a very nice, low mile original 47 Deco Cabover. More than happy to submit pics if you'd like....and absolutely understand if not. I will have some for the gallery soon also. Have to get the intake back on it so I can "pose" him. | | | | | Joined: Nov 1995 Posts: 5,727 24601 | | 24601 Joined: Nov 1995 Posts: 5,727 | Tom -- Perfection is in the eye of the beholder. There's a nice shot ready for the Big Bolt calendar of a truck that's about to go to the scrap man. It doesn't have to be a "nice" truck to be a nice picture. Just make sure you leave me a little space around the truck in the picture for the margin and the caption box. And as for a nice picture, I'm looking for something a little more "artsy" than just a snap of it in your driveway (unless, like Bill Alderson's '46 cover shot for the Best Of the Bolt calendar, you have a really beautiful driveway ...  ) Original trucks have a beauty in themselves -- it's called "patina." Besides, everyone on this site loves the Art Deco COE's. Which gives me yet another calendar idea -- Before and after shots! Maybe next year... Send 'em! Thanks, John And remember ... "C" is for Cookie!

All I need are one or two submissions of pre-Art Deco trucks and we can have it done.
