Nuckin Futs............ Tow Rig Build Planning, Ideas welcomed

I'm getting really tired of hauling my car around in my 05 Crew Cab Dodge due to it's limited cab space. I love the truck as far as hauling and everything else, but I want to expand a little. Seeing how I am on a very limited budget with everything going on, I'm trying to come up with a low budget hauler build. I would really like an old semi, but they get pricey and licensing is getting more strict on these. Also with air brakes, you'd have to have at least an air brake endorsement on your DL, so that limits who can drive on the trip as well. I have a class A CDL, but very few people I know do. I also want something older looking so I can take it to Good Guys as well. I'm having no luck finding any pre 48 Chevy trucks, and no luck finding any pre 80's semi's in my budget. I'd love to have an old Diamond T or Diamond Rio, but good luck finding one of those. But I did find a 47 Dodge 1.5 ton truck that is really cheap. Here are some pics of what one looks like.
