Rocky Mountain Relic...Can you ID this truck?

The wife and I did a long hike here in Colorado on Monday 19-Jan-2009 and in the foothills of the Rockies came across the remains of an old flat bed roadster truck. Looks to be from the early 1900's.

It has an aluminum body tub, steel fenders, aluminum engine block with a steel head. It may have started life as a car?

I took some pictures..check out the the following link. Any idea what it is?

Looks like a Bitsa' . Sorry, thats all i could come up with.

 

Ya but is it a Bitsa' This or Bitsa' That?

 

Fenders from early model t as is the 4 spoke steering wheel. As far as the body is concerned it may have been a "SPECIAL BODY', designed for a particular job i.e. milk truck etc.

 

1928 Henway

 

Whats a henway?

 

That never gets old...

 

alot of "T" there ................ steve

 

I can't see the pictures. Can you post the pictures directly instead of the link? They don't show up for me.

 

Some Model T's did have aluminum bodies. Maybe it's cut down from one.

 

i cant see em either

 

Here's the photo's. By the way this thing is a Tank compared to a Model T. Frame is much stronger, fenders are much larger, it has a regular clutch type tranny and an Aluminum engine block. At first I though it was a REO by the raised insignia on the engine head.

 

I sure think it's a Stewart truck. I think i can make out the Stewart script on the top of the Vaccuum tank. Based on that and the shape of the hood, that's my best guess. Evan

 

That's just a Stewart Warner vacumn fuel pump.Normal on mid to late 20's cars.
