Can you provide a picture? I think this may be older. This is an 1954 Autocar C65: http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/22/old10199618151.jpg This is an 1945 Autocar truck ad (unknown model): http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4081/4933854296_1e86b91be3_o.jpg |

You could be right, but notice how high the headlights sit above the bumper in the profile pic? The logging truck has it's lights down low on the bumper, the fire engine has them mounted higher up the grille. Autocars also generally had taller more vertical grilles from '45-49. Truth is it's probably something in between. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jackbyrneshill/5861167138/ -- Last edit: 2011-09-19 03:32:27 |
