    I worked for Western Union Telegraph Co. around 1970-71. Our Line truck was a COE Ford like that but I don't remember the quad headlights.

    I'm not sold on wind power but those Jeeps are way cool.
     
  29. It's an early C-Series Ford cab, 1st year for them was '58. They had dual headlights for several years before going to singles I think around '65. Don't know why. It was one of Ford's most popular medium duty trucks and was both gas and diesel powered. I think the last year was in the early-mid 80s. Sold many, many parts for those rigs in a variety of configurations.
