1923 IHC Red Baby Truck

Ran across this picture online recently , it is not my truck ( I should be so lucky ) . The owner's name is listed as Don Conrad . The " Red Baby Truck " description is as it was on the site , not sure what the significance is ? Beautiful truck for sure ! Certainly has a distinct roof line ! This picture apparently was taken at a vintage vehicle show somewhere in Washington state ?

Re: 1923 IHC Red Baby Truck

Someone just asked about Red Babies so I looked them up in Crismon.
Crismon says 1921 and 1922only, and very low production when compared to other models.
Also, supposed to have large advertising on them. Obviously red.
This truck is gorgeous but doesn't immediately look just like the Red Babies in Crismon.
Someone here with more experience will chime in.
Thanks for posting it. I like it!

Looks like a 1938 or '39 Ford COE next to the IHC.

Re: 1923 IHC Red Baby Truck

I found a nice original photo online. This is a Red Baby for sure.

Smog guy

Gotta agree with you the first picture doesn't look like a Red Baby to me. The last picture sure is, I have a couple of original newspaper cuttings here one shows 162 off them set up in a field in St Cloud for a photo shoot.

Re: 1923 IHC Red Baby Truck

Trevor, if you can ever get a decent shot of that clipping I'd love to see 162 Red Babies.
