Shiny trucks all look the same to me.
Would you settle for a picture of a character car? It was parked in a barn near St. JO, MO from 1949 to 1999. Dad went through everything mechanical and put radial titres on it , so he can drive it 85 mph. He repaired any structural rust and then carfuly disguised his work to match the faded original paint and surface rust.
He made the front page of both local papers when he took it to the Auburn-Cord-Dusenberg festival. His "Corroded Cord" stole the attention from all the diaper-polished cars including million-dollar Duesenbergs.
It will forever be preserved and driven as-is.
