Oh, if you make it all the way to pages 97, you'll see more pics of Henry, et al.
And page 20 has my all-time favorite picture of the factory!

Your right....my mistake...it wasn't Chrysler...it was the Dodge Bros. here's the link to a not to well known story about the two.

1952 F3 Armored Bank Truck.

Found on the Barrett-Jackson website. Sold in 2008 for $7700. Made in Richmond, CA. I'm sure there weren't too many of these made.

Ooh, Ilya, I'd love to have that one! That is super cool!

I stopped briefly in San Jose today to change planes on my way to Portland... We will reconnect one of these days. I owe you dinner...

Looks like Teddy is in his Happy Place.
Wally, is that the Carson River in the background? Kinda looks like my old stomping grounds.

I never get tired of looking at this truck!

There is nothing tougher that a 57-60 FWD, and yours is gorgeous!!
