Last summer I bought a 1948 REO Speedwagon with flatbed, an old farm truck that had been parked in a barn for over 40 years. I really wasn't in the market but it was so complete I couldn't pass it up. I've got a soft spot for these old REOs, the first school buses I rode were on that chassis and I remember the "Gold Comet" emblem on the side of the hood. It was last registered in 1962 and located 3 hours from me. I went and picked it up this past weekend without incident. I plan to do a full restoration and make it a mascot vehicle for our site here. It will be a long project, the first thing I have to do is find a place to work on it. I may grab one of those car port type structures to get it under cover quickly.
