On Ebay. Other pics at the auction site.
Closed cab with huge water tank on the truck. Must have been some strain on the chassis.

I think the coolest thing is the drivers seat with the head rest. Obviously original WWII Colonels enclosure and seat.
Looks like some type of spraying apparatus on the rear. Possibly some type of an insecticide or herbicide. One might have to be careful to make sure they are not exposed to harful chemicals.
These old trucks were converted to do a lot of stuff expecially on farms and in the oilfield.

Hey, this truck is only 50 miles from one of my other CCKWs. I have to truck it down, so hauling this one home to would only cost an extra $200.
I've been making room for the K-53, but I think the water truck will fit too.

water truck
Got the truck home with no problem. Was talking to the truck driver who hauled it down, said the trailer was acting "funny". I opened the main and a lot of water came out, only 2 or 3 hundred gal.
The winter enclosure is nice, the windows slide open and closed and the doors close and stay closed.
