heavyhauler Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 In the latest issue of the WOT, there was a 1948 EQSW armored car for sale formerly of the Wells Fargo Co. Here is another of these very rare trucks:It has bullet proof glass and was found in a famous scrap yard in Chicago and hauled back east. It may be a former Brinks truck-waiting for the VIN to confirm but, basically, these trucks were designed to be scrapped after use. It is interesting that a very few survive. Comments are most welcome.John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hatcity Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Wasn't that on e-bay not long ago? In Danbury, CT? Quote Success is only a stones throw away.................................................................for a Palestinian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavyhauler Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 That is a good question because it is located somewhere in CT. It is 1 of 1-quite rare with what looks like a 707 gas engine, 5 speed trans and reinforced fire wall. The truck is completely covered in armor with bullet proof glass, gun ports etc. It is likely an LJ1D probably from 1945-50. It is for sale if anyone is interested.John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
