I'm thirsty. Here's a 1935 157" stake truck and a super cool 1936 panel truck ready to deliver beer.

Taylor Walker must be a relative of mine. We share the same last name and good taste in trucks and drink. LOL Tim

I cannot help but wonder if the drivers delivered "downhill" in Frisco! LOL

Actually Anchor steam Beer just closed up shop in Frisco. They had been in business there for over 100 yrs. Frisco has been "going downhill" for years! LOL

Anyone remember the 3 Stooges short where they delivered beer and then destroyed a golf course? They were driving a stake body (Ford?) maybe a 36 loaded with kegs. I think it was titled “Three little beers”.

In my younger days it was not uncommon at all for the delivery drivers to have a beer at each stop. Professional beer drinkers you might say

When I was in the hospital 25 years ago I good friend gave me a VHS copy of the Three Stooges "Three Little Beers". It features a 1935 Ford Model 51, hence my interest. Here it is on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNVTxHARfZ8

At 14:43 in the short, when the parking brake "lets go" it's not a Ford truck featured. Also, lot's of doubles used in the ending beer keg rolling scene.

The truck is a 1935 Model 51 stake with optional dual wheels and an optional spare tire. Looks like it's probably a red painted truck. No other options seen.

Ya, I remember that. Most of the guys there knew when you were coming and wanted a free beer no matter what brand they were guzzling! LOL
