Wes Scott's Speedwagon

In 2012, Wes Scott traded a Model A truck for the remains of a 1933 Franklin "Olympic." This would provide the chassis for the Franklin "Speed Wagon." In 2013 Wes' son Donald found a 1934 Reo Speed Wagon in Shaniko, Oregon. This would provide the cab.
The bed for the "Speed Wagon" came from a Reo pickup in West Plains, Missouri. Richard Harry of Wisconsin provided an extra set of fenders so pickup rear fenders could be made from two sets of sedan fenders.
Another Franklin Club member, Ed Joy of Idaho provided a nice green hood that matched what was left of the original paint on the cab. The goal was to make all the pieces look like they came on the truck originally and to build a truck that could be used and enjoyed. At the Fall Midwest Region Meet in Clinton, MO the comments ranged from "When are you going to paint it?" to "Don't touch it we like it."
Wes is going with "Don't touch it."
