Very significant vehicle.
The design was obviously rejected because, although they gave it a good shot, it did not meet the British ugly vehicle test sufficiently. Lang |

Too funny, although clearly true. We Canadians made up for it with the 13 cab I'm sure you'll agree.

Second failure point: Too much leg room!

I agree. At 6’5” I can’t get in an 11 or 12 cab. I might be able to drive this one.

..... wrong box....... looks to me like a civilian 1940 Chev 1 ton box....all steel and too long for the pilot model.
Buyer would need to fabricate a 2A1 from wood.....is there enough info available to faithfully reproduce the wooden box...? Will now need to clean my keyboard from over salivation!!!!!!! I mean droollllll!!!!

The box looks like a Ben Hur trailer box. Clive Law had something on the early wood cargo boxes...not sure if I still have it on this computer....it might be buried in my emails. However, enough is known about the boxes basic design, combined with the existing photos of the original trucks, that I believe a fairly faithful replica could be made up.

...even has a brake light on the left side that looks "Ben Hur..ish"
You buy the truck and will buy the box from you $500. and even pick it up... Wonder if Bill Gates has any money left after his divorce.
