That's a truck anybody would be proud to be seen in. Looks great.

They've gone up since I was looking. But then hasn't everything.

They have a retro wheel that looks pretty close to original. I think the price is somewhere around $350-400. I got a quote to do my wheel of $1100. I ended up using PC-7 to fill the cracks and about six hours sanding. I used SEM Flexible spray over several coats of primer then cleared it. This was about four years ago. It has held up well although I see some hairline cracks starting to appear.

Merry Christmas to all along with Happy & Healthy New Year wishes.

Bid is now up to $1300.

That's going to be nice when finished.

Great pictures! Thanks. The GMC 600 series pick up is too cool. I can only imagine it is Detroit powered.

Looks like you could fly out and drive home.

Nice!

Very nice. Wish I had the air ride set up.

...and to make things a little more complicated the throttle is on the right side of the steering column.

SWEET!

This truck sold at the RM auction on Friday for $176,000 which includes the commission. Here is a link to their site: https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/hf21/hershey/lots/r0091-1948-diamond-t-201-pickup/1166231#/expandGallery-AllPhotos All it takes is two!

I plan on coming Sat morning. Early hopefully.

I agree. What a beauty!

I'm going to say 1940 GMC.

Thanks for pointing out the Mercedes. I had not noticed.

I couldn't make it this year. Any pictures?

Fantastic for sure. I watched the three parts of the ATHS show in Harrisonburg also. Thanks for you efforts.

Looks like the Hooter's girls are getting younger and younger or is just me.

Thanks for the pictures. Hated to miss the show.

It' hard to concentrate with the driver in place but I think it is a chopped Merc lead sled '49, '50 or '51.

Welcome. I don't think it's a crazy idea. I did the same thing with a B-61. It really stands out at a car show.
