Hi!

I entered into a discussion yesterday with a fellow who seemed to know alot about AD's. He smelled like a brewery and behaved like a bee that had eaten too much spoiled fruit so I had to take what he said with common-sense caution. He said that all running boards on AD's were painted black at the factory. The running boards on my '48 1/2 ton Chev have always been the color of the rest of the truck. My father bought the truck new in '48 and that is the way it has always been. Are my memories clouded with wishful thinking? Also, is there a possibility that there might have been two pinstripes around the cab? A thin one over a thicker one? I don't remember that detail with much clarity.

Thanks!!
