Zippi Posted August 6, 2021 Posted August 6, 2021 That's pretty kewl Steve. I had a 1937 Ford pickup but never knew that these had been build.
Ace-Garageguy Posted August 6, 2021 Posted August 6, 2021 (edited) Without "high-flotation" tires, it looks like it would just sink to the axles anyway. When I was a kid, folks on the East Coast used worn out fat aircraft tires on 4wd trucks to run on the beaches for surf fishing. Lotsa fellas used 'em out West for early dune buggies too.

I think that’s the idea here, keep the truck high and dry but still the tires to something more packed at the bottom and use the chevrons to claw through what might still be somewhat gooey.
