Reo Gold Comet



from Alex Emond, last October, in south Saskatchewan, "Honk if you love Jesus. That old bumper sticker plea popped into my head when I saw this truck . I hit the brake , did a U-turn and grabbed the camera .
It has seen better days but imagine this when it was new. I don't think that there were many of these up here in Canada , ever. This is in Assiniboia at a shop that fixes tractors and combines . I'd like to think that it is slated for restoration too . Somebody with more money than brains who knows just how rare this truck is . The search for the holy growl continues ... Cheers , Alex ps speaking of combines ... these are wider than the road ... you just have to pull way over and let them squeeze by"-AE
There was a 1964 Reo Gold Comet up on Bring-a-Trailer last year.

  1. It’s a shame that the windshield was busted out! This is one cool REO! Would look better in my driveway here in Ohio. Email: paulporter51@yahoo.com
