This was posted to the lists over the weekend by member Phil Hoyle. It looks like a fairly nice truck and I thought someone here might be interested.


Hello all
I saw this on Bring a trailer website.
Location: Brighton, Michigan 48116

This 1931 Ford Model A is a telephone installation service truck that is said to have been used by Wisconsin Bell and later purchased by a former employee. The truck was refurbished in green and black under previous ownership before being acquired by its current owner in 2009 to promote his utility line service company in parades. Power comes from a 201ci L-head inline-four paired with a three-speed manual transmission. This Model A service truck is offered by the seller on behalf of its current owner with period Bell equipment and a clean Michigan title in the owner's name.
