A 1928-1929 version of that Ford Model A "truck" appeared on the Russell Stover Candies tin as part of their "1931 Collection":

Can you imagine driving that thing on a windy day? Maybe the left and right roof gables give more downforce at speed.

Lowered headlight bar detracts from it

Looks like the gas tank was moved to the right splash apron just before the rear fender.

Looks like saddle tanks were installed with filler caps on both sides. I suspect that its got a V8 to push that kind of weight. 1935 wires and a dropped light bar look good.
