I know the AD trucks have different front ends, but are Art Deco trucks the same?
I scanned many, many pages from the archives and found no scoop there. Sorry in advance for my ignorance.

Fenders are ALL different, even the panel under the grill is different. Have seen lots of half tons with 1 ton fenders, you'll know one when you see one! | | | | | Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 443 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 443 | Thanks guys. The reason I asked was that I was overlaying drawings from the Chevrolet service manual of the 1/2 ton through 1-1/2 ton and the fenders are exactly the same. Even the radius of the wheelwells.
Thanks again, George | | |
