firebird86 ◊ 2006-11-12 05:11	Headlight placement makes me think its a M3
Alexander ◊ 2006-11-12 12:32	This type of headlamp was used on all variants (not exclusively). But the wings show that it is a White (or Autocar or Diamond T) and the short rear end (small picture) that it is an M2 Halftrack (1941).

The rare case where Hollywood is correct even though they don't know it. ...and a White not Autocar -- Last edit: 2006-12-05 01:58:15
