Hi all,

For anyone interested, there is a large, very active thread going of black-and-white photos on the HAMB. Here's a link:

Look at that log hood on that beast ! Would love to see the engine !

I would trade all the cars & boats I own for an auto like that.

One "Big Antique " is all I want !

Could this above photo be a Brockway ?

That long hood and chassis looks almost like a fire engine conversion to me.

as you can see GM of Canada started before GM car Company started in 1918,GM was a Holding Company and Durant bought it out November 1918 with Chevrolet shares. Chevrolet owned GM holding Company and McLaughlin Car Company in Canada was the first GM plant with two cars Mclaughlin Buick and Chevrolet . Later as you can see GM Canada built Oldsmobile ,Cadillac, Reo. LaSalle, and Marquis. Chevrolet GM trucks and Pontiac Trucks .
