Nice truck. I am going to guess it is from Lowell, Massachusetts.

I sure LOVE the looks of that truck! Guess I'll have to take a little ride up to Lowell to have a look for it! HA! HA! All it would need is some gears to have it run a little easier and faster!!

Thanks for posting Dave from N.J. my old stomping grounds!
