Here is a truck that can help you win a few beers of your friends. Ask anyone who is familiar with old trucks what they see in the photo below and the answer will always be Autocar. Who could blame them? After all, the truck is wearing an Autocar cab, hood and grill. Only the fenders are homemade. Appearances can be deceiving. Underneath this “Autocar” is Brockway 200 series chassis complete with a 238 Detroit. It was built by Jeremy’s father back in the day and would eventually be equipped with a fifth wheel mounted wrecker. I suppose this truck is the only known example of an Autoway?
A big thanks goes out to Jeremy for sharing this cool piece of trucking history.
