Cool even has chains on the wheel! The driver "LOOKS" cold.

The chains on the wheel gives it a very strange appearance indeed. Look close at enlarged view. They seem to be regular solid rubber tires on a car chassis with chain drive "form a truck" conversion, not a TT.

Form-a-truck type kit. Chain drive wheels were made for manufacturer of kit.

Took me a while to figure out that it's the chains making an awkward square in the middle, not a crudely made flange.

Wouldn't it be cool just to sit next to a pot belly stove and just talk to him today! Stories to be told!

There's more going on here the more you look. Form-a-truck conversion to a car chassis, but where is the car chassis? There appear to be full length frame rails from front to back. The running board brackets have been altered/replaced to allow their fitment. The cab and tray look to be a commercial production rather than a home built modification.

I love the curves built into the cab design. No square boxes for that builder.

Allan from down under.

I agree about the cab looking above average. Furniture maker cab, not these new generation of wooden cabs i see that look like someone nailed old freight pallets together.
