Late to the thread
Mike
Your being late to the thread isn't a problem, your input is very much appreciated. What you have given me for information is more than I have gotten so far, all I had found was the 5-J-7 signals van configuration. I would be very interested in any information or pictures you might have about the truck. From your information I believe the original lighting system and puller fans were still in place.

I certainly wont be doing a Bob Carrier restoration on the truck, but will try and get reasonably close to original appearance. Originally the interior was clad with good one side fir ply wood. The best we can get now, with out special order, is better one side. The plan is to re-insulate with dense foam board and clad it with 1/4" mahogany underlay. When painted the mahogany will look close enough to original to be acceptable, at 2/3 the cost.
