Identify this A Pickup please

Found this on craigslist. It looks to be a stock model A 28/29 Phonebooth pickup, then you look at the cab and its not phonebooth or 30/31. And it doesnt look like its made from a sedan , What the hell is it?

so since duke got to post before i did... i will post the pics so you dont have to follow the link... this truck looks like nothing ive ever seen! theres books out there with every a-bone produced... but ive NEVER seen a 29 p/u like this!!!! SOME ONE PUT OUR MINDS TO REST!!! IS IT REAL?!! or something fabbed?

 

sweet truck, hope some one from here scoops it up

 

looks bit like a 27 t model to me then again mabye fabbed up

 

It looks like a '28-'29 2 door sedan shortened to a truck cab. Farmers used to do it all the time. Not to unusual.

 

Exactly, It's a tudor sedan that was made into a pick up. Real common back in the day.

 

Here's another Sedan transformed into a pickup. I took it into Photoshop and did a few different versions. Sage green version is my fav.

 

Its not mine but wish it was

 

I just talked to the seller, he is selling it for inlaws. He says the ***le is 29 and for a truck, and that he has had it 'looked at' and it's originally a truck! Not like any I have seen however, probably converted from a see-dan during WW2 to get more gas availability? You would think a 'collision center' would be able to tell, but it may be a good job of converting. He wants 10k or close for it. If anyone wants me to look at it I can. He says it starts well, runs well, has mechanical brakes yet etc etc. I can see it now with 16's, big/little rubber, reverse eye spring, straight duals................

 

Yeah it definatly doesnt look like a sedan conversion, becuase the rest of the cab behind the window would be wayyy longer than it is.

 

Is it like the one in this link? The angle of the craigslist pic makes it hard to see the back corner

I think its a cutdown sedan they just chose not to put the extra metal in the back making more like a standard pick up cab. I'm looking thru Henrys Ladys and not seing anything like it.

Maybe someone put a 30-31 window in a 28-29....but the back of the cab looks more rounded than the 28-29 trucks. Suggesting its a sedan cutdown.

 

holy **** that looks identical to me! see how the back of the cab is still flat like a p/u cab? not like a shortened sedan where it curves in towards the bottom.. WTF? is it a REALLY good coach job from somewhere here in the NW or an overlooked barely produced model?

 

All I see is HOT ROD. but thats just me.........

 

Must be a coupla those rare Washington pickups...
Neat, though!

 

$10K???? That is really steep for a cut up tudor pickup. And believe me, that is what it is. Been around A's all my life (56 years young) and it is without a doubt a sedan of some sort modified into a pick up.

 

That's what he is trying to get close to, at least at this point. I am not interested at that price, or even near, but if someone was I would peek at it first of the week for 'em. Tim

 

It's a cut down sedan...I'd hold out for the real thing.

 

there was 1 like that here in england and it wasnt a cut down sedan,ill try and scan some pics in the morning,,we do have gl*** bodied ones that look just like spauldings post,,,,

 

found the feature,but no side or rear pics,it does say it was an origenal rhd truck and was a restored stocker before being rodded
