vicpanza Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 This popped up on eBay this morning. Not aware of this type of configuration on a 1920 pickup truck. Appreciate any feedback regarding the roof. Might it have been a screenside that someone modified? Anyone in the area who can have a look at it for me? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1920-Dodge-Other-Pickups/282589040275?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
jpage Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Something looks really hinky about that thing. I doubt that it was ever a truck especially the way the rear seat and top is configured. The tailgate logo looks like it's from the '40's or '50's but I could be wrong.Looking close to the reflections on the paint reveals to me a very bad body with a lot of pitting and or poor body repair. I'd tread carefully on this one!
30DodgePanel Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Yeah it looks like a early to late 40's bed and a 63 tailgate heavily modified... I'm not a car guy but if that VIN number he provided is the engine number then the car engine looks like it may date to Nov 1920 . Not a truck, not even close... As for the interior roof lining, I've seen that on antique furniture, never seen it used on antique automobiles.
vicpanza Posted July 29, 2017 Author Posted July 29, 2017 Yea...it's definitely a home made roof. Just trying to figure out what they started with? Could have been a touring car or chassis?? In any event, after speaking with him, I don't have any interest. Still looking for my 1933-35 truck:)
