Interesting reading, thanks David. This 1942 article said that the gas tank was under the rear seat. Was that true in regards to the earliest models?

I wonder if that model still exists somewhere?

I want a better view of the extended wheelbase ambulance. It might be a good idea for a very badly rusted tub.
