Cover of a 1939 or 1940 brochure: weird "background" vehicle .gif ":)") Not an AC-Series (C was for Conventional), but an AF-Series (most certainly for Forward?). In both case, the A means a 1939 or 1940 truck. As cab-over model, it could be any model from the gasoline powered 2-ton AF-350 to the 8-ton Diesel propelled ADF-850. -- Last edit: 2015-07-29 01:22:59 |

Some months later... The AC/AF-Series truck line was in fact made from 1939 until 1948: it was replaced by the new heavy-duty HC/HF-Series in 1949. The model on this brochure has the 1941-48 headlamps (or was it 1946-48? The war-time trucks seem to have had different models), ie. with the blinkers on top of them like the smaller CC/CF- and EC/EF-Series and Chevrolet 'Art Deco' trucks. Troxel's Auto Literature web site sells this brochure both as 1947 and 1948 publications, and I also saw the same brochure said to be the 1946 brochure on other sites. We should maybe keep at least a 1946+ model year, to match the headlamps? Anyway, the main model on this cover is a 5-ton AF-600 or a 7-ton AF-700. ![[Image: 1947-48gmcac-af-seriesbrochurecover.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/18713/1947-48gmcac-af-seriesbrochurecover.jpg) -- Last edit: 2016-06-22 04:56:09 |

eLMeR: Headlight evolution on these is, 1937-1945 are mounted high, with brackets coming up through holes in the fenders. 1946-1948 have mounting low, with brackets in front of the fenders. The park lights on top of the headlight housings is late 1941-'42 through early 1949. |
