Title: Old Train store pictures
Post by: Terry on December 20, 2020, 11:46:07 AM

A freind just sent me these two old pictures becuase he knows I like trains.

Looks like a store in Seattle.

 

 

The powerwagon is neat. The wear and patina are wonderful.

Here's the story behind the find of the truck. There's also a youtube video.

Interesting story. Great looking truck. I would leave it along. Just do work to make it safe to drive.

That is cool, I always wanted to get an old panel truck and redo it.
I like the nose on that old Chevy.
Couldn't paint that one.
