I have a faint memory of seeing a comment from eLMeR describing these trucks on a page just like this, which was what led me to dissecting White's nomenclature for their truck models. This was the first truck model made during Freightliner's joint venture with White starting in 1951. WF-Series, but the drive type isn't visible. Could be a 4x2 (WF-42) or maybe a 6x4 (WF-64), but we can't tell with these views. -> 1951 White-Freightliner WF-Series It's not a Freightliner anyways, you can clearly see the "White" on the logo above "Freightliner." So the original page is inaccurate anyways. -- Last edit: 2024-03-07 09:00:30
