    Mike Srok Love this milk truck. It looks very much like the old trucks I too remember. A great share! But I must ask, did you really mean 1050 to 1960 or is that a fixable typo? I want to put this into the community Best of Collection. : )

    Margaret Siemers​ Ha! No, that text was from the original post...that'd would've made the first models pretty old, eh;) I'm pretty sure they meant 1950...and thanks!

    I remember trucks like that. With the flip up seats.  Strange concept, driving while standing?  :-)
