1939 Diamond T, dually, with a 6-cyl Hercules engine.

Diamond T Motor Car Co. founded in Chicago by C. A. Tilt. His shoe-making father fashioned a logo featuring a big "T" (for Tilt) framed by a diamond, which signified high quality. The company was later acquired by the White Motor Co. which merged it with the REO truck company, to be known as Diamond Reo.

The 1939/49 model is the classic American truck. That one appears to be very restorable.
