Mr. TDM 4512 ◊ 2011-05-14 02:40	It's an interesting picture but really too blurry to zero in on for positive I.D. - but here's what I can tell you; It's post 1948 as indicated by the 'paired windows' and the heavy bumper and it's 96 inches wide as per the spacing between the under windshield floor vents which would make it a GM Transit Diesel (H or M?)4509, 4512, 5104 or 5106. Take your choice.

I don´t think 45++ because there is spacing between rear door and rear wheel. Then it must be a 51++. I suggest 1953 GM TDH 5106 because 96" wide and built in great number.
