Oh, man... I hate to spend this much $ on one but this isn't too far away in NH. $150 though... I'm tempted...

 Edit:...Well, I just made an offer.

Absolutely LOVE that 30s Mack.

 

The upper photo screams "East Fryeburg, ME"

Yes, I will likely start this project with a grill and go from there

That's fantastic!

 

Really though... What else do you need??

 

A frame and some tires. Maybe an engine.

Good to go.

Ha, I got that 1930? ford truck grill surround on my first offer so the game is ON! A lot of imagery going through my head right now... Maybe go and see my gokart guy this weekend and see what he's got in the for sale pile. I'm thinking 8" tall x 8" - 10" wide wheels and Hoosier dirt oval tires. 3" - 4" susp. travel... and ideally, crazy power.

 My "process" is to lay components out on the garage floor roughly where they'll be... and scratch my head a lot, fabricate a bit, and keep doing that until it's done.

 Have any of you heard of or follow Grind Hard Plumbing? - not a plumbing co.

 They build the kind of performance I can only dream of, in small custom contraptions.

Check out their channel:

This is a 10 minute time lapse of their Barbie Jeep build. It's pretty crazy! The playlist of this build is pretty good as well.

That's my exact process as well. The wife always asks "what the hell are you just staring at it for?"
