    Nearly speechless - nearly....... wow!

    Like the 'rain cap' on the exhaust and I'm curious why in 49 they used 42-47 style fenders on the rear??

    At one time, years ago, there was a radio commercial singing "You gotta get wild-root cream oil Charlie". Kinda funny to see it lettered on the back of that van body.

    I was to the former factory, which is now a museum in Boyertown, PA, a couple of months ago. They have a big collection of restored commercial trucks there, many forms of step van bodies. But they don't have one like that.

    I'd bet they'd like to see your pictures! Here's the site,

    Don't have Real Player in this PC but started to load it then thought better of it and stopped before selecting save to computor or other. Then my AVG spotted a Trojan Virus right away. Be careful guys:mad:

    Crap!

    I deleted that message - sorry, guys!

    I didn't have that problem, actually, so I thought nothing of posting it.

    Hey - when you clean up as many computers as I do for a living, you sure don't want to add to anybody else's headache!

    Interestingly, the Macs don't have this problem. :cool: LOL!
