Must be some kind of conversion as Buick did not build a truck in 1930.  A good parts car however if the price is negotiable.

 

Thanks,

       If this was a conversion, someone did an impressively good job, judging by the back side of the cab.  Is it not possible that Buick did build a few trucks, perhaps for dealer use, as did makers of some other non-truck marques?  Could this have been a tow truck?

       Particularly puzzling are the wheels:  certainly truck style -- not wood, not wire . . . but with an apparent special-edition Buick hubcap to match?  (Also, the apparently drop-center wheels appear to be too small to have been simply leftovers from an earlier design  -- as do the brake drums.)  Who besides Buick would have supplied these hubcaps?

       Interesting item . . .

I could be wrong but the back of the truck looks very similar to a  34 ford pick up.

I think GMC used that engine for a while.
