Big Dave ◊ 2013-07-08 20:54	Upper mounted wipers make me think early 50s Nissan 380
lightninboy ◊ 2013-07-15 04:31	Could be a Nash?
lightninboy ◊ 2014-11-28 23:02	Doesn't seem to be U.S.-built at all.
lightninboy ◊ 2014-11-28 23:19	A rare Hudson truck?
lightninboy ◊ 2015-04-06 23:46	Looks like it's a Bedford of some sort. -- Last edit: 2015-04-06 23:51:16

lightninboy ◊ 2015-04-09 18:15	There were some Bedfords with top-mounted wipers. http://www.armyvehicles.dk/bda2c.htm Is at 17:07 on YouTube. Right-side view looks like it's a GM. -- Last edit: 2015-04-09 18:30:15
Sunbar ◊ 2015-04-21 14:04	Length of wing behind the front wheel too long for Bedford A type or D type and depth of bonnet also not right when looking at the YouTube video. lightninboy wrote There were some Bedfords with top-mounted wipers. http://www.armyvehicles.dk/bda2c.htm Military spec may have used top mounted wipers to allow top-hinged windscreens for ventilation. -- Last edit: 2015-04-21 14:33:45
Sunbar ◊ 2015-04-30 19:55	Looks like a Chevrolet to me as lightninboy's original comment.
