Hi guys:
Do you see any of these trucks around anymore? Kind of
thought about finding one as a road tractor or dump truck from
around 1950-1980. Don't see many in ohio, the ones I have
found are really rust buckets and not worth restoring because
body is too far gone |

I still have a Diamond-T which was a road tractor till I made the frame longer and installed dump bed. If I remember right Diamond went out of business before 1980 due to the gov contract with no inflation in it so they went bankrupt. |

I'm in Missouri. At one time I had pictures but not any more due to the old computer crashing on me and this new one I have yet to figure out how to do pictures on |
