This truck is in a junkyard in southern Wisconsin. This is the 220th B-1-B made and it is the earliest B-1-B currently in the registry. The serial number tag was mounted on the front of the cowl from the factory. The tag is missing, but the outline is still there and can be seen in one of the pictures. The body tag is mounted horizontally on the passenger side of the firewall instead of vertically on the drivers side of the fire wall like on most trucks of this era. Both tag locations look original and there is no evidence of the tags ever being mounted in the standard locations. The engine is a 230ci from a 1951 or 1952 Dodge car.
