I can't believe it's listed with no reserve.

Depending on what he wants out of it he may get what he needs for it. What do you think it will go for?

No reserve should make more of a buzz, there will be a lot of low bids just so people can see their name on it, but it only shows to them not the populous. Nice thing with ebay, if the seller feels it won't reach what he wants to sell it for he can end the auction early and just pay the listing fees. I am sure he or she has that amount in mind. Sure is a gorgeous truck.

I am pretty sure that is the truck that was originally offered by the gentleman (maybe he was a beer distributor???) out of the Baton Rouge area? In this economy, I suspect the price will be off a little from what true value would have been a few years ago but I would project to see bids between $25k - $30k. Who knows, maybe even a little more if folks get excited.

On a similar topic, does anyone remember (--or have pics) the faux "Deluxe 76B" pick-ups that were "restored" a decade or so ago? I think there were a pair of them built and sold that may have been sent overseas??

This Truck should and I said should Sell for over $ 50,000. But in this economy who knows. It was on the market last year for about $65,000. I guess it didn't Sell. It is a really nice truck. Let the Bidding begin.

I never saw the Faux trucks, but I had heard a few years ago someone had remade some of the bed sides

These days most weddings only last a few years.

This truck could last a lifetime!

Which is the better investment?

My truck (in my avitar) was first advertised as a "Deluxe" (which it is obviously not) until I called the seller on it.

Like Deluxe Delivery Don, I saw this same truck on eBay last year as well. It will be interesting to follow it this time as well.

It's only been on there 2 hours and has already got 7 bidders on the list!

It is a steel top deluxe too, so later in the production of them than the soft tops.

Nice looking truck, will make someone happy.

Bolted, I believe, with welting in between. Been a while since I saw one up close.

I wish there were more then 3 pictures posted. I'd like to see how correct the engine and interior are. There's no referance to when it was restored only the year it was shown. Is it possible this is 25 year old restoration with just over 400 miles on it?

If it is as nice at it looks, $50K would be a good buy. NICE, RARE model A's are bringing good $$ these days.
