1954 Autocar Diesel

[Southcity]

I had a feeling the first board member to request for more info on this truck would be TX Firefighter.........and that's a compliment!

We were both in a rush, he had his motor idling and was getting ready to pull out so I scrambled to grab my camera and snap up some photos, I regret that I forgot his name but I will stop him again next time I see him to get more info, here's what I got in the rush:

He's an independent trucker, hauls pretty much everything/anything, so not a toy, he really works the truck. The first time I ever saw him (few months ago) he was haulin some Hotmix AC concrete on a tandem bottom dump and he confirmed this when I asked about it.

He said he upgraded the drive train, brakes etc. but I did not have enough time to get the particulars. I'll update again the next time I am able speak to him.
