Doesn't specify the condition but the vague pictures indicate it is mostly there and solid. Engine looks to be missing parts. The guy says it would make a great summer project. Anyway I don't know much about the early trucks and have no idea what a fixer upper should cost. I think he is quite high. It looks much like "Lurch" in the Gallery but with an open express cab. Give me a thought on price but more on where to find good information on this era. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | I'm certainly not up to parr on the old old stuff but I'm considering a 29 at the moment.
Perhaps it would be worth it to check out some of the 27's in the gallery and maybe send a couple of the guys a note to see what they have to say. It may take a little time but I'm sure there are some folks who can help you along the way.
Not sure about value. Its ALL about condition condition condition.

But, I do know engine parts are very hard to find for 20s vintage trucks, and can be expensive. So if you are thinking restoration, I would be cautious. If you are thinking rod, or modernize with a 4.3, or straight six, then the condition of frame and sheet metal is first concern. Could be a neat resto-rod. Best of luck!
