Scored a fair condition October 42 AM from ebay. Biggest thing was it covered the 'new' open cab's for 3/4, 1 1/2, 2 1/2 and 3+ton and up cabs. Also mentioned the MG rings. Most interesting thing about the article, well, two actually, is that the AM's claimed that the redesign was for better antiaircraft (ie the easier mounting of an MG) and not that its really for shipping and metal conservation. Second thing was that most of the photos were of a Studebaker US6. IIRC Studebaker WAS the designer of the open cabs.
