I thought this was interesting with so many folks in the T truck.

Nice Rich! I like the cycle in the photo also. I have them beat with 29 in my TT tho. Looks like you would have waffle butt on that seating in the back.😁

The truck is right hand drive & the motor cycle looks like a BSA model H but the paint is different. England?

John,
I believe you are correct my bad & that explaines the paint confusion.

Judging by the wheelbase and the rear wheel it looks like some kind of Form-a-Truck convrrsion job, anyone have a clue or some similar truck photo ?

Going on the length of the running boards, I would say the frame has been extended to accommodate an auxilliary transmission, rather than cutting the drive shaft. There is no second axle like a Form a truck conversion. I built my shooting brake by extending the frame to accommodate a KC Warford. The longer wheelbase allows an extended body.

I agree that there is no chain drive happening. The rear end is larger than Ford so probably from another kind of truck. I see the running board supports so I must be a stock frame with an extension.

Rich, Any idea of the picture location? Looks like a brush covered hill in the background.

I have no idea where this is located. Left hand drive might be a clue. I snagged the photo from the AACA site.
