No I'm not happy. I know there's a lot more stuff there than that to take pictures of. Get back there and get some more. lol
 
I have a reprint of a Ford parts book and price list that covers 1928 to 1932 vehicles. It is a hoot to look through it and read the prices!
PS, thanks for posting all the photos, I thoroughly enjoyed them!
 
When comparing prices you have to remember to convert to/from gold or what the hourly wage was. That $14.00 at $20.00/oz from 1932 is $815.50 at todays $1165/oz.
 
I have enjoyed them all. More pictures would be real good. You make good quality photos also.
Did the tandem wheel truck have the axles connected by chain or was it a twin screw, or something else?

Thanks for posting them.
