    Oh, yeah, there are some sedan deliveries shown in this thread. For the most part a dead give away is that a panel truck has 2 back doors hinged on the truck corners with the latch in the middle. Sedan deliveries have one door which goes most of the way across the rear of the car.

    There are probably exceptions to this "rule."

    My avatar is a 1948 1/2 ton panel truck that I've had 48 years. The pic is at one of the early hamb drags at MoKan. The grill looks wonky in the pic but it's a camera angle deal. The bars are actually perfectly straight, parallel, and not crooked like they appear here. The only good pix I have of it are 35mm prints in albums. I'll try to find one, copy to digital, and post here. I can't go out and snap a pic 'cause it's in the shop for body work & paint.
     
  3. They came with 17.5" and 19.5" were also used on older models from the '50's. My '65 had 17.5" wheels.
