Looks no newer than from the 1940's. |

Look at the windows and compare to other pictures, I think it looks like a Seagrave with a heavily modified body. |

From the view in the later thumb I reckon it is a Dodge circa 1939-40. |

Dodge-based but don't know who the fire truck maker was. |

Thanks to the front end visible in mike962's thumb, it can be identified as a fire truck based on a 1939-47 Dodge Job-Rated cowl + chassis indeed. More precisely a 1941-42 W-Series, due to the chrome bars in the lower part of the grille. (1939 T-Series have a grille trim that looks like a down pointing arrow; the grille trim of the 1940 V-Series has a V-shape lower part; the 1946-47 W-Series -same name as for the 1941-42 models- had no extra chrome but the cross) Wheel rims and wheelbase indicate a heavy-duty model, which means, as pre-war truck, any model among the 1½-ton WF-Series, the 2-ton WH-Series and the 3-ton WK-Series. But unless someone is able to measure the exact length of the wheelbase, I don't think there is any clue to tell a model over another. (This said, some parts of the movie were apparently shot in Thailand. So couldn't it be the Fargo equivalent of the W-Series?) |
