The V-12 is 491 cu. in, and something like 190 @ 3550. Its one of the earlier series F models that were LaFrance made after they purchased the tooling/patterns. Single 2 barrel stromberg carb and a little less displacement than some of the later series.

The windshield frame is the only one chromed, I figured it would take longer to rust that way and does look sharp. My old frame was rotted beyond reasonable repair thanks to a tomcat in the 70's that started some rust that never would stop. The side window frames and glass are original to the truck, as is the rear window glass. I'll see if I have any more pictures. Might have to crawl under and snap a few if I get a chance.
