Looking for magazine article on Ration Truck.
Old Cars weekly interviewed me at Hershey about my Ration truck. The article came out
Around the beginning of April. I have not seen the article and would like a copy. Would someone here have a copy? My email is. [email protected] Thanks Wick |

I will admit my ignorance - what is a ration truck?

See this thread: https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=315804 One theory is that many old cars were converted to farm or business trucks during WW2 in order to obtain more gas rationing coupons. - |

That's a pretty cool car! I have seen a few converted cars but didn't realize the complete purpose for them.
