I saw this truck in the Lowe's parking lot this morning. It said 1942 on the back of the cab.

I'll take a guess at one of the KB-# series? Don't know enough about em to say which. Someone will have to tell me if I am right.
 
Nice.
I think I saw a Diamond T this morning on my way back from the lake.
Looked like it was on display at a big gas station near Milaca, MN.
Only saw it in passing. I will stop and have a better look next time I go up.
Looked like about a mid 40s model 303 - 1 ton.
 
It has an air horn so it must be a bigger series. Our corn sheller man had a red KB5 but this one in the pic looks bigger than the corn sheller truck. Jim
 
The hood ornament and grille chrome say 1947-49, but that might've been changed. But with the chrome, it says KB-series instead of K-series. And since the headlight is separate from the fender, that says it's at least a KB-6, possibly a KB-7.
 

I own a 1948 KB5 and it has 17' wheels so that guy is probably a KB6 or 7 -- nice pics -- good old trucks
 
Neighbor had a KB7 looked a lot like that. It started life as a Coke delivery truck. He had it converted to a farm truck but man it was purdy. Black with bright red and all that chrome!!!
 
There is one around here. Sat in the International dealership for 20 years I know of till the owner died and the dealership was bought out by another in Dallas.

Step-dad had a otr KB-7 with a sleeper cab and it was all one piece with the cab. He had it built and the doors angled out slightly at the rear with a small window on each side that looked like from a coupe styled car. It also had a storage area on each side below the sleeper bed that could be accessed from the exterior that was lockable. I have a pic of it somewhere on a 35mm slide. That thing looked awesome.
