1927 Durant Star Huckster Truck
One of 471 made from 1923 to 1928. There are less than 6 left. This Truck was last licensed in 1939 then found in a field in the late 70's. (Above left picture) It took 10 years to restore to its original condition. My grandpa did the full restoration of this vehicle from the late 80's through the 90's. My brother Dan enherited the truck 4 years ago. My brother was always going to car shows with my grandpa and helping out with his vehicles. This is a very rare vehicle. According to historian Mr. Bob Krause, this truck is believed to be the only original left in the world. This is one item that my grandpa would like to see stay in our family for a long time. We would like to have it passed along through our family. The next generation after my brother will determine what happens to the truck, we all just hope it stays within the family.
