I see it's back!
Still priced about 5 times what it's worth in my humble opinion.
The only parts of it that I can see that could be 1916 are the operator's platform. The balance looks to be 1919-1920ish.
I see a casting date on the cylinder block of 2-21-19. This may or may not be the actual casting date. Depending on the foundry, sometimes a date like this may be when the pattern was put into service or was last repaired.

Could still be a fun truck to putz around with parade etc. if could be bought for a fair price.
