The GRUMMAN fire truck is another 41 FORD with the body replaced. The NASH is an AIRFLYTE '50-52 model, they make great airbagged slammers and have a unibody construction (called 'bathtub NASHES by most) hard chargin' flathead 6 cyl., like to know more about that yellow B-23 in the corner and if the bottom of that PANTHER has been lightened up or if it's just reflection off the cement ramp. The black truck is a 38-39 GMC.

Thanks, I just peel it off my compost heap of information, I really enjoy these info digouts so I have to thank you for posting them. I promised myself over 50 years ago to try and learn at least one new thing everyday. The worst thing one can do is to decide to stop learning and let your brain atrophy, if you do soon you're like Uncle Harold who talks to the turkey and green beans @ Thanksgiving.
Stay on the ball and keep sharp pop1 geek

There's so much cool stuff in this thread that my head may explode! :supz:

Interesting that the "Old Crow" '73 Mustang has Mexico license plates on it.

What's going on? a shoot off between a Panzerfaust and a Bazooka or an early, early version of MYTHBUSTERS? :roll: that Tiger looks pretty well maintained or well preserved, any date on the photo?

That's a photo from WW2, no question in my mind. Probably the Tiger brought back to Aberdeen Proving Grounds at the end of the war. They did all kinds of testing and I've seen plenty of shots where they'd had soldiers in german uniforms, showing off captured German equipment.
