1918 oldsmobile pickup

[utoco]

I have a 1918 oldsmobile open cab pickup. I found it in a barn about 5 years ago. I have very little knowledge about this truck. It runs but is in need of some work. Any information about the truck would be greatly appreciated. ie. Can I still get parts? What were production numbers? How many came with dump beds? Etc. Thanks in advance.

Uncle Jed and Jethro Bodine kept their Oldsmobile car-turned-truck going a long time!

If you have a true pick up you have a VERY rare vehicle as I have been searching for one for years. There is a factory photo of one based off a car and I do not think any exist.

You may have one of the express delivery trucks which came with many different bodies. There are quite a few of these still in operation. Some parts are available. Send me a PM and I will try and help you. Digital puctures would help as well. I have a lot of literature on these trucks.

Here are some pictures of the Olds in question. I think it's a really neat vehicle.
