Notice the 50s GMC in the first pic has a 9 foot bed, very rare

The 56 Merc was given to me

I guess the last ranch has most of his old cars up in the trees, I didn't get up there yet. If you really want to play with the dark picture you can see a Christine in the shed.

Can anyone indentify the cab in the last photo of billy3's #3 post?
Never seen anything like that.

Pretty sure it's a home made cab on an old army truck cowl. Since there was another army truck and an extra running gear.

I could never ever live in a place that had that much tin or I would be spending my entire SS check on old cars each month. Most of those look really savable, and I like the 37(?) Chevy coupe a lot.

BTW, loved this picture. Look on his face is priceless. I think he is saying "this one is mine!"

That T cab looks like it has good doors on it yet. They are getting hard to find.

I like the cow guarding the 37 ford pickup.

I like it all. (we are going to need a bigger boat)

Also not in the picture is a 30s Dodge truck . The grille was frozen in face down, the cab was a ways off and had no doors or windshield frame but the one front fender was there and the headlight was mounted to it, which means 35 at the newest and suicide doors. He said he might be able to find them.

It's an early 41 or 42 WWII Dodge (WC-21) Weapons Carrier cab. A lot of farmers bought them up after the war because they made a great farm truck. I found one sitting in the middle of an old hog farm in Tennessee with a homemade cab that the guy just refuses to let go of. I'd like to have just the grill off one of these beasts. The grill would look fantastic on a rat rod truck.

Here's another one that's getting junked out locally

 

[Willowbilly3]

Update, went back out and found the owner today. He gave me the 37 Ford Pickup, wants to keep the T truck and didn't push it any further other than asking about the other stash. I didn't get to see them (too muddy) but found out there is anothe 37 Ford truck, a 40(?) Ford Coe and another COE that belong to another guy. Plus these2 cars are for sale. Not sure if the Coe is or not but wouldn't that make a cool L-110 extended cab pickup? Any binder fans?

The 38 Ford? Yeah, that is the car that started this trek. I have not contacted the owner yet.

I'd love to get my hands on that International coe!!! Would make one really cool hauler or even better a "dare to be ugly" camper.
