    Can someone help me identify the year make and model of this vintage big rig and what can you tell me about its use for having only two axles. I would love to turn this into a custom cruiser. Thank you all in advance!!! [​IMG]

    Pete 281 likely a 40s or 50s model judgeing by the single stack and axle.

    Yep.

    Hopefully someone with more knowledge will drop in, but that sure looks like a White cab, mid 60's maybe?

    I don't know what it is but if you can grab it I'd grab that son of a gun.

    Looks like it's a nice shape. I like that front end you could make that whole front end tilt like a modern truck it looks like.

    Yes the cab does look like an old white but that front end I don't know about that.

    I'm sure someone will know what it is.

    I think you may be actully right, looking closer i missed the rounded roof on my phone. it could go either way. though the headlights and hood are wrong for a 60s white.

    Closest i know of might be a 4200?

    Honestly yea i think its a varient of a 4200, the tanks are correct, the cans are correct the roof is correct. Just the hood and square headlights are off.

    The fender mounted headlights hood trim and 5th wheel position are much closer then the white....could also be a franken truck too. B model with a modded white or pete hood maybe?
