not sure. engine and cab are not same yeartho

I had the same year, but mine was the thirty-foot bus version, which I used as a moving van. It hauled my stuff around for many years, with the longest trip being from BC to Alberta... it's been years since I've heard that beautiful deep resonant hum! Thanks for posting this, and for stirring the memories.

@tardotronic glad you enjoyed it. The previous owner had a 6 in. dia. steel pipe boom on it and contracted out to the O.P.P. to recver ditched trucks etc. on the 401 hwy. His name was "Dizzy" and he lived up to his name!!

@jafromobile white power, white power!!

[Jafromobile]

Don't those things have a chrome logo on the side that says "White Power"?

I've seen a 1940's White truck that had it about 10 years ago. Weirdest thing I've seen. It was fully restored and sitting in a field with 10 other weird trucks, some with tracks, but it never moved. Fresh paint, etc... and getting grown in.

That truck is an amazing looking survivor!
