That third image of the truck was a little confusing. Not being familiar with 1940's US work trucks the first reaction is that it is a flat nosed cab over truck, with a lamp at a funny angle.

However after searching for Diamond T on-line, it seems that it was this truck and the light has flattened out the shape. Good trick with the perspective.

I also liked your pic of the Farmall.

I'll cruise your site for both trucks and the "other stuff".

I think I may have picked the wrong model, but definitely in that family of Diamond T. They seem to be akin to the British Antar or Thornycroft for size and might. They seem to make good looking brush trucks and impressive tank transports.

You managed to do a good thing, and get EO to post a truck picture. He just doesn't see trucks, they have every sinuous curve, playful smile and dimpled grin a girl can have, but he just misses it completely.

"Dimpled grin"? Gee. :-)

A brief flirtation with box vans in 2007 is not an appreciation. I'll accept the challenge and get you a dimpled grin ;-)
