Re: Tuesday Truckin
The body on the car in the third photo is typical of English built vans. I believe they are referred to as Manchester bodies.

Photo number 11 shows "Auto Body Works" and "EF Kneupper" on the sign. I found this postcard on a Texas history website showing that the photo was taken in San Antonio Texas.

Re: Tuesday Truckin
With all the hundreds of photos you have posted, there has never been a factory 1925 pickup!

Re: Tuesday Truckin
In that third picture there is who appears as a small man or a boy with something which looks like a cigarette. It could be a sucker, or maybe the saying is true,"Smoking can stunt your growth"

The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

Re: Tuesday Truckin
Thanks Tom, you always make my day with your photos. I can glean so much information , cars, people , and the tough times they lived.
Picture number two, looks like it may be a Springfield body . Two covered up to get a good look at the sides. My interest is we have a original Springfield #301 body on a 1922. I find the skis on the front interesting probably doesn't turn short but will handle the snow, Also look at the rain gutter on the right side. It will prevent that cold drip down your neck. Good old American ingenuity.

Re: Tuesday Truckin
The Crystal Gasoline tanker is a unique combination. It appears to have an ordinary roadster body mounted onto a TT, and that body has an accessory California top. The photo suggests it is a new truck.
