1928 Vintage auto NY city

Take a look at this u-tube video of cars and trucks in New York City 1928. Thanks to the guys at Smokstak for providing the link!

At 1:16 there is a shovel nose truck either IH or Mack and again at 2:28 is another shovel nose truck. Too grainey to tell for sure either way. MM

My daughter reads American Sign Language which includes lip reading. The Babe says,"I wish I could live long enough to meet Scottso, and ride in an R120 4X4". She suggests that she can hardly wait 12 years until Ford release the '40 Deluxe. Well, rounded off, its very close.
