  1. What you have there is a second-styling D-model.  In 1956 the design was modified to improve the truck including the trim band around the cab and the rear corner windows.  The Verti-lift cab could be raised manually or by optional the optional electric pump.  A total of 832 D-series were produced between 1955 and 1958.  

    Yours seems to have all of the necessary items, the front grill dish and the side Bulldog emblems.  Make sure you keep them secure.  

    My gallery has additional photos of my D-42.

    If you decide not to progress with the project, let me know.

    With that wheelbase and those 8 stud wheels, I wonder if that was an LTL tractor of some sort? Don’t know if anyone that ran Valueliner tractors.   Any ideas what it’s first assignment was?

    York Corrugated, York, PA.  Tractor for between the plant and warehouse.

  3. After thoughtful consideration, The ATCA Board of Directors has decided to cancel the 2020 National Meet at Macungie. Concern for the health and safety of our members combined with government social restrictions left no alternative.

    Currently, our business office is closed, but our office manager is able to access email and voicemails. Refunds will be made for show preregistrations when normal business resumes. We will post any updates on the ATCA website and on Facebook.

    ATCA asks all of our friends to follow all health precautions from the CDC and to remain aware of all requirements handed down by federal, state, and local authorities. We ask you to carefully consider if it would be wise to cancel or reschedule your chapter meetings & functions including shows during this period of crowd size restrictions. ATCA will not request or authorize insurance certificates for chapter events pending a rollback of the government imposed social distancing requirements.

  4. He H-67 and similar models were introduced two years prior to the G.  The G design was a carry over from the H.  I have always liked the H-67 style, good ones are hard to find.  I've looked at many over the years that weren't worth hauling home.

    Is there a Tilted Kilt in Lititz?

    There is no Tilted Kilt but there may be a bent bonnet or two in the area. 

    I had a much better reply but I could not bring myself to post it here in public as it may be misconstrued as a slam against someone in the hobby.  With enough pressure and spirits, I may share it with the gang on Saturday at the show.
