hello ALEX

You are right , the WHITE 704 I had posted , has losted it's original windscreen.

Serge, To be honest I wasn't referring to the windscreen in your picture, but I was referring to the one in my picture. Your picture and the pictures Lex posted seem to show a slightly "lazy" windscreen contour when you look at the top edge, while the one I posted seems to have a more "straight" edge on the top of the windscreen. Maybe a different type?

Sadly I don't know the fate of the truck in the pictures or the location, but I guess it might still be out there. I seem to be an excellent candidate for restoration. You could try contacting the guy who posted the pictures on the forum-auto forum; some of the guys posting pictures of rusting cars in scrapyards are helpfull in giving the location and/or owners names, while others try hard to keep it a secret

A few more of the next page on forum-auto:

yes, the owner offered it first to me, but one is enough!!

If someone decides to buy this very rare truck, note that I have most of the missing parts for it, exept the cargobed.

Cheers,
