No, it is not mine. It looks like it really is a Manhattan (not Manhatten) based on the dashboard shot.
I think the decimal point is one position too far to the right in the price.

It sort of has an Australian Ute look to it! I echo Tom's response, I wish it were closer...

Pictures are not too sharp (at least on my 'puter  :) ) but it looks like the builder did a good job on the back of the cab. Nicely rounded........a lot of pickup 'conversions' end up with just a flat panel with 90 degree corners to make it easier to fab up.

From the shape of the rear window it looks like he may have used a 1940-47 Ford cab rear panel. It is on the way to the meet in June.  If he could be convinced to trailer it up he might have a good chance of selling it there.

I think it looks really neat, especially towing a HenryJ gasser behind. The price is good, as it seems to be all there. Henry.

Very cool truck, looks like the Madman Muntz pickups made in southern Ca by Betts Curtis Motors by Earl Muntz!
