OK, which one of you moved the horn? Or did you just erase the horn, Brad?
Good sense of humor.

The pictures are from an auction that I went to back in 2009, they had a bunch of Model A era sales brochures and what not, the rare dealer books and stuff. Some of them had a lot of crayon and pencil drawing on them.

The commercial vehicle book ended up selling for about $400 even with the damage.

Our late 1930 AA Ford stake bed that we still use on our farm. We have been using it for about 40 years now. We loaned it out once for the movie "Snow Falling on the Cedars."

What a fun ride this would be, and with steel wheels on steel rails, I'll bet the fuel mileage would be great.

this old orchard truck sat next to Hecker Pass in Gilroy for most of my childhood, and was moved around 10 years ago. Once upon a time, orchard trucks like this were scattered all over California.
