personal information 
JimErvin - Sep 09, 2005 - 12:08 AM
View other stories on this topicI've just been hired by a local museum to do research and restoration work on a 1939 Diamond T truck with a bus body. This vehicle has an extensive local history, being used for door to door grocery sales in the 1940s, 50s and early 60s.It was one of several vehicles owned and operated by a local grocer.

My first requirement is information on the restoration or leads for purchase of replacement dash guages. I can't specify which guages as yet but expect to have that information shortly.

Any dash guage information would be much appreciated.
Thanks for your help.My email is raleigh_rider@hotmail.com user name for the sight is JimErvin

1955 (I Think) Diamond T 222 
GoldMiner/Admin - Dec 06, 2003 - 08:21 PM
View other stories on this topicJust wanted to let you know it was nice to find some info on these great old trucks. I have found a 1955 (I think) Diamond T 222.. It has a flatbed on it now, and looks like it is a dually truck, however the inner
rear wheels are removed/missing. Anyhow, I would appreciate some information/links on these old trucks.
ALso, any contact information from folks willing to help would be great. I would like to purchase this truck, which is about 90% complete, but is missing door handles, inner rear duals and the stainless grill is very dented. Other than that, it is all there,
badges and all. If you have any sources on mid 50's trucks to share, or any good books/reading, please let me know.
