O.T. Old Photo - Model T Truck-Nipper

Post by gemering »

This photo was posted on the Model T Ford Club of America website.
I thought some members here would like to see it.

Stay strong and have faith as we fight through this very difficult time.
My heart and prayers especially goes out to all of those who have suffered loss.

Love the photo and words of encouragement. Jerry B.

Ken, aren't you building something similar only on a Model A chassis? Any photos of your project?

Yes I am. It is still a work in progress. I just finished steam bending some oak boards. I hope to start some assembly soon. I will post some pictures then. It all started with finding an original Nipper radiator ornament as seen on my avatar.

Noblesville, Indiana. I lived in an 1880 house about 4 block from the Masonic lodge in the background and two blocks from the Dry Goods store. I could see the Craycraft mansion from my back yard. The old Craycraft Dry Goods store still had the listening rooms up on the second floor. I've left the Midwest over ten years ago so I don't know what things look like today. Living there over 20 years I never found a dealer tag or anything phonographic in town.
