This appears to be a rare find. A 1948 REO Speedwagon that has spent most of it's life in a garage. Posting for MrBB a member on Net Tractor Talk:
------------------
Looking to sell a 1948 REO Speed Wagon truck
truck was bought new, and owned by a friends father
it was garage kept since day one
the Father died in 1967 and truck was parked in the same garage and left there
MY friend passed away, and the truck became his wife's
so the truck was more or less a one owner truck
She is looking to sell the truck, as the family estate was settled and the garage the truck lived in was lost
SO, I now have the truck at a friends farm now, and its outside
as I don't have a building(YET) it will fit in
SO I am trying to sell the truck for my friends wife
it has 28,485 miles on it
its VERY clean as in NO rust, no real dents, all body parts are there, all glass is in 100% condition, NO cracks, NO missing tail lights or badges or the likes
truck NEVER seen Snow or road salt , and NEVER even drove on a HI way
it has one extra rear wheel, and two brand new front tires NOT on the truck, there extra's
ALL I have done to truck so far is winch it out of garage onto a trailer, and towed it to my friend sand took it off the trailer there
I have NOT tried the motor to see if it is free, or try to start it or the like's
I just moved it from one place top another
BACK in 2013 I had a guy look truck over and told me motor was FREE, as it was in a family settlement for a while now, and that sale never took place due to not being settled
BUT MY friend NOW has a clean title in hand and is wanting to sell it
the asking price on the truck is $6,000.00
its located at zip code 18220, Deleno PA (Ne Pa)
would LOVE to see this thing sell before winter, as I feel bad seeing it outside now after SO many yrs of being stored in a dry garage!
