Lee Drenen and jerrman thanks for the comments on my "new" Ford truck. Colorado hirailer you mentioned you had a few of these trucks, I wonder did you do anything to the artwork on the trailer, to me it looks a little out of place for its time (too cartoon and bright) given that was the depression etc.
Regards everyone

For those graphics on the side, (you may not want to do this if you want to preserve the original in some way) when I’ve wanted to change the look, I either sand it back a little, then some India ink/alcohol application or chalks or in some cases to give it the aged look or just printed out another graphic on paper on which the back is sanded down to be very thin and glueing it on the sides. Makes it easy to pick to color I want and the time frame.
