Title: The new addition to the family! Post by: Seven181 on June 17, 2011, 09:27:17 am Gang,
Well, here it is! I bought this restored 1950 Ford F1 Stake truck about two weeks ago. It has the original wood on the back!!!! The guy I got it from bought it from a school district down in Arizona. The Creighton School District. They had put 2-3 inches of tar on the wood and it took the guy over 50 hours to remove it and get it restored. It is in awesome shape. I had a 1948 Ford Panel truck that I made a 7up truck about 10 years ago and sold it. Ever since then, I was kicking myself for letting it go. I will find and post pics of that 7up truck! Anyway, I wanted and have been looking for another truck, so here it is! With this though, I downsized a lot of machines. I sold 12 machines to a guy in Houston over the weekend. Most all Stoners, a few cig machines and one or two soda machines. I am very happy with the new ride! Brian Title: Re: The new addition to the family!

Title: Re: The new addition to the family! Post by: johnieG on June 17, 2011, 12:07:06 pm Nice! I'd turn it into a slant-sided delivery truck & put a bunch of soda cases in it.

Title: Re: The new addition to the family! Post by: Creighton on June 17, 2011, 09:51:58 pm Hey that's my truck :-) Congrats!! Think you could do the slant sides with some storage down the middle.

Would be cool to post a picture of it loaded with your machines. I would certainly keep it in my files. Title: Re: The new addition to the family! Post by: tkaz on June 18, 2011, 12:23:22 am Great looking truck, I really like the wooden stake bodies. I say you cut out some embossing from a machine, have it welded in the doors and paint the cab up to match!
