Eddie, Don Siewert's '28 Roadster Pickup

Dad's 28 Roadster Pickup

This little Roadster Pickup belongs to my father. It's great fun to play with, whether hauling oddities around town or toys to the beach. The truck tops out at just over 45 mph and, with the mechanical brakes and all, is real exciting to stop (in a hurry) from that speed. My grandfathers name and 1935 phone number are lettered on the door, which is how we found his original work truck. While visiting a threshermen's convention a number of years ago an old acquaintance of my grandfather approached us and after noting that the pickup wasn't the real truck, informed us that the original truck was resting on his farm. Jack Cuncanon generously arranged for us to acquire the old truck and it now rests in my own back yard.
