    Saw this posted on Craigslist. It's a Steel 1929 Ford cab and bed. From what I've been told it is made in Dallas close to downtown. They are suppose to have one at the LaGrave swapmeet in Ft Worth. Any thoughts good or bad? A friend of mine is thinking about buying one.

    Uh yea... it don't even look like anything cool!! first of all, it's someones homemade truck... based off a 29 A... but it doesn't come close to it!

    Look how much higher the back quarter window is compared to the door window?

    I'm not a fan... It's like turkey bacon, it's just not the same.

    It might look better if it was really dark out.

    But it's got dem sewercide doors and oprah windows, and the roof is ribbed for her pleasure, it's win win!:D

    Someone should ask the seller if any stock Model A parts will fit it... just to see what he says...

    Something tells me I will.:rolleyes:

    Sorry, but that don't meet my standards, and I damn near ain't got standards.
    How can a reproduction Model A be 12" longer, 4" wider, oval rear windowed, opera windowed, and suicide doored?
    28-29 A's have faults, but they are pretty. This thing is ugly as an old man's ***.
