pflaming Posted July 21, 2014 Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 looks home made to me. I don't think A mfg would not use square tubing for the windshield frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desoto1939 Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 even if hand made someone did a nice job to create the truck. rich hartung Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conroe Powdercoating Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) very cool truck, if its homemade, hes a metal master. I personally think if it was homemade, like the guy pounded the fenders etc, I would think he would have made a better windshield frame. Thats what makes me think its a production truck, rare indeed I would think, but all a guess on my part.

Young Ed Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 I also think its a production truck but to me it looks more like a D series international truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MBF Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I wonder if this was a dealer promotional piece that someone got a hold of and modified? I remember my father taking me to the local MoPar dealer back in the late 50's and them having a Desoto bodies electric car about the same size as this. As a kid I thought that was pretty cool. Still do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
