Who got the Freighter?

Jimbo - Thanks for the truck ID. I found out that trucks in that year range had beds available that were wider and longer than later trucks and especially today's models. My Kitten still wouldn't have fit though.

Think I see the roof of an orange burban through the window of a crevasse finder. The Tucker deal of the century! So which cat should I bring home? Decisions, decisions, descisions.

Decisions??? Not so much. You bring BOTH home! Because one is the only one of it's kind (you'll hear a pretty odd coincidence story about that one) and the second is a rolling piece of history who's sistership is in New Zealand!

Now that is a GREAT idea!!:brows:
I would like to hear any information about this red rig, was the body a modified auto body? or was it a preproduction prototype? That little "vent" window just brought back memories of long road trips and my Dad using the "ashtray" window in his '66 Caprice.

I was wondering about that body. It looks to me like a 35-36 Ford, although a lot of bodies looked the same at that time. Especially without the fenders and grill.

Still working on it and found that it was orange before it was this wine color.

Here is your sign:

as we continue to research the history of this one-off tucker 423, it is beginning to look like it was built with tucker inc involvement, given several details that are clearly tucker, and just maybe, just maybe tucker sr had it built, the custom body work was done by an outside company, will update as more is learned about this very special tucker!

sounds like a krusty owner bragging about how fast his krusty can go they all forget that's the trailer speed.
