Comb. no. 221 export blue, argent silver stripes, black wheels
Comb. no. 223 regency blue, argent silver stripes, regency blue wheels
Comb. no. 235 regency blue, silver stripes, regency blue wheels
Comb. no. 239 Interlake blue, white stripes, Interlaken blue wheels
Comb. no. 241 Pennant blue, white stripes, Pennant blue wheels
These are all 1938 combinations, does say truck or car. Look on the body plate to see if any of the 5 numbers are on it. These of course are US colors, export maybe different. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2011 Posts: 6 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jul 2011 Posts: 6 | | | | | | Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 457 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 457 | That is one beautiful truck. The headlight buckets seem longer than the US built versions, or maybe it is just the angle of photos. Great Truck!
