Back in 1881, a pair of Cincinnati brothers decided to get into the fresh produce racket. Along the way to becoming an iconic presence in the area, they invested in a 1928 Model 10 Walker Electric Truck. Sadly, and to the surprise of many, Gentile Bros. Co. folded in 2013, but that truck lives on. After a life of schlepping carrots and cabbage, it mysteriously made its way down to Palm Springs, California, where it's spent a quiet retirement working on a fine patina. Rescued from a five-year stint out in the weather by Greg Gunkel, the pickup amazingly, once again, came to life with the addition of a set of tires and a trio of 12-volt batteries. Quite possibly the last of its kind – we've searched high and low for other examples of Walker [Electric] Trucks and have found only a handful, and none like this configuration – Gunkel has offered it up on Craigslist in hopes it can find a good home in the hands of a museum or collector. It comes with a set of California "historical vehicle" license plates and a reprint of a booklet entitled "Instructions for the care and use of Model 10 light delivery Walker Electric Trucks." Asking price is a soft $40,000.
