Guest Posted November 15, 2001 Share Posted November 15, 2001 Seaton, if you look on the firewall it should have a tag just to the right of the oil can holder on the passenger side. You will see the car specs, make/model. Yours should say for the model 28-something. Let me know what that number is and I can tell you what it started out to be. I agree that it did not start life as a pickup. Was this the car listed on ebay a couple of days ago?<P>John<BR>1928, model 29 (Town Brougham) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
