There seems to be a bit of congestion at the Braintree/Route 3 split south of Boston...you may want to find an alternate route...<insert news/traffic helo sound effect here>

Is the thing sitting on the gas tank a distribution point for the fuel the truck is carrying?

 

[Wurger]

IMHO that's a multi supply point for refueling of a couple of vehicles or planes at the same time.

I mentioned in another post somewhere, not sure which thread, about Ford being contracted to build a truck plant for agriculture and the military in 1920. The GAZ AA is just like the 1920 Ford model C down to the oval badge on the radiator shell and the gas fill on the cowl in front of the windshield.

 

[Wurger]

No wonder , the GAZ AA is a licenced Ford AA assembling by soviets with a couple of modifications in the period 1932-1950.

 

[special ed]

Yup, Even the bumper is the same.

If that's a definition of damaged I don't want to see a destroyed example
