    I'm still checking cl***ified ads and scouting the internet for information about a car I once owned. It was a 1924 Ford Model T, although it looked like a roadster pickup it was actually a C-cab body with the top removed. It was originally built by Dutch Eshelman (sp) in Clinton, Iowa. The engine/trans as well as the brakes were from a four cylinder Volvo. I believe that after I sold it the Buick Skylark wires were removed and some kind of aluminum wheel fitted.

    So far as I know the car started out in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, then moved on to San Antonio and the trail goes cold when it was sold to a guy on Whidbey Island off Seattle, Washington.

    The kid in the picture now has salt/pepper gray hair and a wife and kid to support. He loved the little car and I would like to find it and possibly repurchase it for the grandkids to enjoy.
