Default Interior of Brookville Roadster Pickup

Someone asked to see the interior so they could compare theirs to a Brookville, so I'm posting this interior picture from our project.

Could it be a 1-800-rod?

I think the truck is an exercise in building an A with current components, hence 1-800-rod, but maybe 1-800-A, no hard time intended.

Which leads to a hijack question, how was it titled?

I always wanted to do that, just don't have the talent. It's all built in my mind though, complete with 4-wheel drive! (I do live in Alaska.)

Hey Carl, the Russian GAZ A's had a jeep version that was 4WD. I’ve seen them for sale on European sale sites. It used model A blueprint Axles, wouldn't be impossible to use the Transfer case and front from one on a PU. Just a thought...

In California you can title a special construction and that was what was done.

Am a T guy but saw this post on Brooksville bodies, so uploaded this video of a friend who mounted this new extended pickup cab on a Model A chassis for more comfort. Looks pretty good to me!

Cracks me up every time the camera gets close to the engine it starts picking up stating from the ignition system. You can count the plugs firing. Neat Truck too.
