vision386 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Ex-military converted tractor for sure, WW-II era, many truck makers built this very same truck,so its possible this is a Brockway,Corbitt,Autocar,Ward-Lafrance and a few others that i cant remember..........................Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

Doug Maney Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Without doing any research, I would think Federal or Corbitt. Quote Interested in Old Trucks?

fullfuel01 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 it's a White. the gentlemen was asking too much for it. We wanted to buy it but it was in bad shape and the price was over the budget for a non-Mack truck!
