1947 Autocar C90 flatbed

This 1947 Autocar C90 flatbed was purchased new by Lockwood Brothers in Newport News Virginia. In 1983 my father’s company purchased the truck and moved it to Frenchtown NJ. There the truck was repainted red from the original yellow and the steel flatbed was installed in place of the wooden one. The truck then sat inside and untouched from 1985 until 2012 when I purchased it from the company owner. The truck now resides in Bucks County Pennsylvania with its other Autocar siblings. The truck has 15,000 original miles on it, is driven to truck shows and moves hay on the farm during the summer. The other trucks in the picture are a 1953 DC75 (now owned by a friend), and a 1972 S64B.
