Listed as a 1930 truck, but has 28/9 wheels, cab, with inside door latches which were phased out in Dec. 1928. Etc, etc. Engine #?

Also has a 7 tooth steering box. The only 1930 part I see is the front bumper.

Maybe when he hit a bump and flew through the roof.

The rear window is also incorrect (too long), among a lot of other things.

For this area its probably about $10K high. Probably worth more where its at. Would be a fun vehicle to run around with as-is.

It probably is an early 30 with the 29 sheet metal.

Remembering that vehicles were often titled in the year they were sold back then. So it is possible that the original paperwork could say '30 for a '29. (maybe )

I wonder if he is a member here? That would explain the rapid change in the listing.
