I noticed that one. If I didn't already have something really similar it would be hard for me to pass up.

Re: Not a Binder, but pretty darn cool!

Nice,I'd buy it,just needs paint and fresh chrome...

Can't be a Diamond T nor a '68 and certainly nothing to do with IH :roll: except the comfovision cab. White merged DT & REO by that time (1967). Nose is wrong for that year,'58 is more like it.

Scroll down to the 2 fire engines,good examples of the difference.

Re: Not a Binder, but pretty darn cool!

yea, either a Diamond Reo or older T,

doesn't have the Diamond T logo strips on the doors, so either removed or a Reo

I like my old Diamond T better, 1937 Model 80

Re: Not a Binder, but pretty darn cool!

That '37 Model 80 pickup is NICE- one question, is it the angle of the image or do the two windshields have separate controls for the venting? It looks like one is slightly open more than the other, but I guess it may just be the angle of the image. No matter, it is a unique looker, and I like those! :t0201:

Yea, his & hers windshields, the Dashes on the mid to late 30s Diamond Ts were awesome, I had to remember to look at the road and not the dash when driving it,

Those are some classy looking gauges! No wonder it's hard to keep your eyes on the road.

I went to the annual show of the local ATHS chapter today. There were two trucks similar to the one in the original post. I think they both had the logo plate on the door. I sure wish I had taken a camera.
