What is this? Is it an old moving truck?

There's a similar but smaller early 40's IH moving van under construction that I saw the other day being built at a shop. Blown 426 Hemi with TF on a late 70s Chevy C30 dually chassis. Mint body with no rust, original patina and faded original sign writing. It will be kept as is with Alcoa wheels the only hint of what's under the hood. Will get some photos next time I'm there.

 

I would think so. HRP

 

Most likely

 

This one was labeled as a Monarch.-MIKE

 

So fantastic. I still want one. Came across a couple in the last 5 years but nothing restorable.

 

There is one in LONGVIEW, WASH 98632, that runs and drives, complete been stored inside. $9000.00 cash firm don't comma dreaming , fly in and drive home. Its a Gerstenschlager. google it..

 

I haven't seen it in years, As I recall it looks very similar to this. 'cept the one in Longview looked different in the front, and is yellow.

the bodies look like they are made from trailers, this one is a Fruehauf.

 

Is that some kind of turn signal "Arm"????

 

Semaphore. Olden days turn signal.

 

The FUGLIER the better.

 

EVERYBODY FANTASIZES,
But when a person tells them where one is that drives, and functions, and is available.
Then there is no longer interest. Must be "the Chase" that excites most of us..

 

Is it just me or do you see the resemblance of a Tiki in the face of this van? HRP

 

Looks more like a Herman Munster forehead!
