Don't I wish !! Some guy goes by ROGERMAN4033 down around Dallas just called me,said he just ran accross/bought a 90% complete P.U. Told him to get on here and the guys would help him all they could. Hope he does. Would be fun to watch it come back to life.

I think this fellow has been on the forum before, and has owned the truck since last spring. This is a foe toe he sent me in October 2007. :cool:

Fortunately everything from the doors foreward is the same as a 35 T-plane 4 dr sedan!

Think your right Sam, looks like the country around there and sure not that many of these left. He was wanting some headlight lenses I have from a 37 but those look bigger to me ,told him better measure, these are 7 9/16 dia.

no offense you p/u lover guys, but that thing is a falling apart POS. I know they are rare, but geez.... I guess we are lucky to have folks like you guys that love these trucks enough to save them, even in this condition.

I would street rod it.... power it with a jet motor, and twin H.

Like Sam, I too have corresponded and received photos from the new owner ('Roger'). If I recall correctly, he is hoping to elevate it to the status of 'roller' before Spring.

I must admit, it is quite a bit more than I would attempt to 'take on'.

From the emails we have exchanged, he appears to be very interested in any 'guidance', information, parts, etc., that anyone is able to provide -

Here's his email address:
HETRogerman40@aol.com (HETRogerman40@aol.com)

(remove the 'HET')

- Didn't see Sam's posting of the email address, but this confirms that we are talking about the same person... :rolleyes: :D

He must not want too much guidance, elsin he'd be the one posting on this site:cool:. I have a 90 pick up thats 35% complete, and I have to agree with the kid, sometimes they gotta be junk:( or there are no spare parts for the good ones;).

OMG, that does look rough. But, I'm glad to see someone has guts enough to bring her back. Hope it stays original.
