it's official, the diamond t is MINE for my new project. first thing's first though, i need to get it home http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gifit has no wheels on it so i need to figure out the exact year so i can figure out the bolt pattern and get some junk wheels so i can trailer it and so i can roll it into it's new home in my yard. there is a spot where a metal plate used to be on the passenger side near the doorjamb that i suspect would have told me the year since none of the other info plates have that on there. the engine and rearend are there too if those could help ID it. i believe it is a '46 or '47 from the pictures i have been able to find, but i wanna know for sure. i have a likely source to get the wheels, but if anyone near utah might have them that would help as well.

Sorry I can't help you at all, but congrats on getting ahold of one of the prettist trucks every built. I have always wanted one. You problably already know but you might check around the web for people who restore firetrucks. DT built a lot of them.
