16 Inch Rims
Hi Bob and Harry
Yes, the 16" rims on the long wheelbase are interesting, looking at Bill Gregg's book there are a couple of Pat 13 C60L trucks shown all appear to be special body trucks like Instrument Repair and Office. The text under each picture however says 10:50 X 20 tires, though the wheels in the pictures are clearly 16". To fit the 16" rims the trucks would need to be fitted with the smaller brake drums and axles. That the truck has these features it might mean that it was one of those special use vehicles which was later fitted with a cargo body. If it was a special use truck it may have lead a much more relaxed life and hence be in very good condition.
