Funny that you mention it, because the photo that
Garth (I think it was Garth) referenced this AM was a
truck with Simplex on the sideframe, but it looked
like a T-section Vulcan to me, if there ever was such
a beast. I didn't say anything because I try to avoid
inserting foot into mouth (although I still may be
with that T-section Vulcan comment - I can't remember
if the journal boxes were integral or not).

Slinking for cover....
