Not quite GAF era, but close, (pictures)
« on: July 20, 2009, 01:06:25 PM »
Went to a large antique tractor and machinery show yesterday.  This is almost fully restored, but does not run yet, hopefully next year.

It is a WWI era Liberty 5 ton truck.  They were made by several makers and featured interchangeable parts.







I thought this might be of interest to some here.

I should forward this to our museum here in town. We have the Heartland Museum of Military Vehicles here, and they have some of that older stuff.
Cool truck.
