Since I was in the area, I stopped by the dealer who has the green 1947 FFPW for sale on Ebay. Since the bidding is now at $23,000, I thought I would comment.

I didn't do a real inspection, just kind of looked it over. This was undoubtedly a very nice original truck that was reasonably well taken care of, especially compared to most Power Wagons.

It has its share of faults and some paint blistering over the roof seam which is probably hiding some corrosion. But, overall the truck was (is) a nice truck.

Unfortunately, someone has thrown a cheapy paint job on the truck without doing any body work or prep. This was probably the truck most of us dream about, an unmolested, nearly rust-free original truck in nice condition. Now, someone will have to either live with the paint job or spend a lot of money stripping and repainting it.

The dealer has it priced at $40,000. It will probably sell (not at that price) to someone with money who is willing to live with a 20 foot paint job.

Anyway, don't be fooled by the professional photo of the truck. Look closely at the detail photos and you will see the quality of the paint.
