Hey I am making a Model A hot rod/ Rat rod and am looking for some side rails for the pickup box. I am thinking old steel manure spreader sides or elevator side rails would work too. I would like something that isnt completely rotted out. I am also looking for any model A parts especially body parts. Thanks. I am in central Wi.

I actually mean bed sides when I said side rails. Allis stuff is a huge plus+++++

Contact Old Time Auto at Lake Mills or see them next week at Iola.

I was actually looking to add something to give it a farmers taste.

Yeah, you want a manure spreader. To make it REALLY cool, shorten it up and put the whole works on there... the chains, the feeder bars, and the thrower... and put a WD-45 motor underhood, an Allis radiator... exhaust through the hood, and a T-roadster body....

There isn't anything much cooler than a Model A Ford pickup box!
