your welcome (again ) i have the book, and i must say its a bit old (published in 1988) my dad gave it to me since he's kind of a good artist himself .

Man, this is awesome.
If I had to guess the make, I would say it's a Ford from the early 30's.
It looks very similar to the remains of the old 1933 Ford may dad and I have in the side yard.
I've favorited it, and I'll ask my dad what he thinks - he should have a good idea.

Thank You..!! I thought Ford too.. but as someone pointed out.. the grill and the hood dont match up.. which throws me off.. Fords of those years have a unique grill shell.. and one person says they think it's a Chevy.. I'm really not too up on those old trucks.. without looking them up online.. If I get the chance I'll have to ask the owner.. He may not even know.. Appreciate your Fav..!!

it's a beautiful vehicle, and it'd be even more beautiful if it was restored. I love old vehicles!

Thanks..!! although I can appreciate all of the hard work that goes into restoring such a Truck.. I love the natural weathered rustic look.. and loads of character that comes along with it..

That doesnt look like a stock radiater. It doesn't match with the hood. Hard to say what it is. Looks like somebodys got alot of sanding to do. Pretty cool find. Nice shot.

QuanticChaos1000 [2008-03-30 03:29:20 +0000 UTC]

I'm in love now!

It looks a lot like a 1931 Chevrolet truck, but it looks like it has 32 Chevrolet car fenders and rad shell, I suggest talking o the owner to find out though!

I just added my towtruck to my cardomain today, I will be adding photo's and information later! [link]

Insley would have made the wrecker part.
Truck is possibly a Reo ?
There's so much potential there.
