I have no idea what I am looking at but it smells like ‘50s or maybe even ‘40s. :))

I'd bet that that beautiful machine is of a '30s vintage. ;)

What the heck is that? My truck knowledge fails me here. My first guess would be an Autocar or maybe a Diamond T. But I'm probably wrong.

I found only this, seems similar, save for the windshield. End of 30's Marmon-Herrington but I dont know how reliable is that caption. :D

@pigbrother I should've thought about that make earlier.

Marmon-Herrington was big in all-wheel drive truck market once (converting Ford trucks to 4WD, for example), and the radiator shell of the truck you've found is spot-on. overfloater has probably modeled a newer truck though.

It's not.
It is, technically, but not in the sense that it's a successor, or a newer series.

On the previous page, is that a 1932 Marmon-Herrington? Tho, it could be anywhere from 1932 to 1940s (i think they modified it to a single rear axle at some point in '36). Don't think it's the TH-320-6, so probably THD-315-6 .. Maybe?
The arrow plaque on top and the 2 lamp holder on the roof make me think of the middle-eastern one that was used as a "bus", hauling a passenger trailer ..

Anyways, awesome modelling. One day I'll be half as good at it. :lol:

That Marmon-Herrington is a rig that hauled some important army general (can't remember the name) across North African deserts in WW2.
