This 1942 REO Speedwagon Custom is built on a 1-ton Ford chassis and is powered by a 460ci Ford V8, paired with an automatic transmission. It features power steering and power brakes, making it much easier to drive than its original setup. The truck rides on 16" wheels, with disc brakes in the front and drum brakes in the rear, offering a balance of stopping power and classic utility. A custom Y-pipe dual exhaust gives it a deep, commanding tone, while the 3.10 rear gear ratio ensures smooth highway cruising.
Inside, modern technology meets vintage charm with a touchscreen radio head unit that includes Bluetooth, AUX input for music, and built-in navigation. The truck also has an A/C pump, though it is currently non-functional. This REO Speedwagon combines its classic design with upgraded mechanicals, making it a truly one-of-a-kind build for anyone looking to own a piece of history with added modern convenience.
