Les, check out this picture of a bridging company that has taken delivery of several new trucks, all of which have just the cab and no box on the back, suggesting they were delivered this way so as to have some equipment installed. I see a White and a Chevy...are those Autocars I see in this picture and if so doesn't this suggest the possibility if they were part of a bridging company that they might have had a crane installed at some point after this picture was taken? I know I'm clutching at straws here but what else were Autocars used for by a bridging company? I'll keep looking for more pics and maybe we'll be able to solve this riddle.

CHIMO! Derek.
