In 1928 a Roadster Express (Pickup) was built in Canada. The center of a four page brochure below shows the vehicle. ![[Linked Image from csweet2.photosite.com]](http://csweet2.photosite.com/~photos/tn/306_348.ts1030199358000.jpg) I have never seen one or a photo either but understand that several still exist. The US Roadster Deliveries were built for 1930 to 1932 model years.
How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!

I have one of these pickups which I have been restoring from the frame up for some time now. It is Canadian, built in Oshawa and was used as a Forestry truck for many years. There are at least 4 of these around here that I have heard of, but none are in the process of being restored I have been making alot of wood for it lately.
