Cool 1924 Chevy what would you make?

I saw this cool 1924 Chevy truck on Racingjunk, and thought it would make a cool car hauler if you trailer a vehicle to shows. Other ideas would be a vintage motorhome, a Wedding limo, a party bus, or a tour bus, a company in Pensacola now uses a 1930 model A tour bus replica for historical tours. It was a show truck, according to the seller, he says he has pics of it, I wonder what it used to be.

I think it would make a great Munster-esque limo.

Re: Cool 1924 Chevy what would you make?

Shorten it a bit, drop it, and build a woody style body. That would be awesome!

Re: Cool 1924 Chevy what would you make?

I'd turn it in to a "tiny house" on wheels. Go to shows all over the country and wouldn't need a motel....

Re: Cool 1924 Chevy what would you make?

The sky's the limit for this truck. Time, space, fab skills, but above all, a sack full of C notes would be required. What's the selling price?

Re: Cool 1924 Chevy what would you make?

It was $4500 in HODGENVILLE, KY. How about mount an Airstream trailer on the back? Instant redneck motor home.

Madtat, you hit it right on the head. That was my thoughts and it makes it worse to see it. Naomi would kill me if I bring that thing home.

Hey guys, I showed the pics to Naomi (she was half asleep) and she said that's what I want, a Waltons truck. Now to sell some of my toys to get up the sack of C notes.

That would make an amazing car hauler. Hopefully who ever ends up with it will make something cool with it.
