This is a Republic. The Republic Motor Truck Company began manufacturing trucks in 1913 in Alma, Michigan as the Alma Motor Truck Company. They changed the name in 1914. They were the largest manufacturer of trucks in America in 1918-1919 and produced over 10,000 trucks. In 1928 they were acquired by the Linn Manufacturing Corporation and merged with American-La France in 1929 and became La-France-Republic Corporation. They cold trucks under the Republic name in England until 1931. (Source: The Complete Encyclopedia of Commercial Vehicles)

Heather, the white Kenworth W-Model (OLD900) you have in here is actually an American W900B!
ReplyDeleteSeems like you and John are enjoying driving around the country to experience truck shows. I know a lot of people who are just as into truck shows like you are. I bet you'll get along with them. Anyway, those historic trucks surely look majestic. Plus, the condition they're in doesn't seem to portray how old they are, yet they look so vintage. Beautiful show! I hope you truly enjoyed that one. Take care! :)
