Yup, Old Sarge, just about Oliver green. Quite the conversation piece. The body of that truck is one unbroken line from front to back. Just a classic piece of streamline technology. It must have an enclosed bulk tank, like an Oliver 77, 88, etc..fuel tank because of the integration of the body. The body bulges into fenders for the rear wheels, and form a teardrop shape at the rearmost part. Bubblenose, huh? Whatever the nickname, I think that truck is a thing of beauty, and I would love to have one in my yard. Those trucks, built 50 years ago, were more aerodynamic than the ones we have TODAY. Is that progress?
