Then my mission to find an ambulance was suddenly scrubbed (at least for the time being), I came across an ad for a Carryall. All reason left me. It was definitely too small to be of much use in my Set business, except of course for the smaller props. But I was smitten, I had to have one!

So I began searching for more information on the Carryalls. I discovered there was also a 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton version of the WC series. The 1/2 ton being manufactured in 1941 and the 3/4 ton primarily in 1942. So I needed to decide between the two. I love the sloped hood and rounded nose of the 1/2 ton WC series of trucks, but really didn't like the cut out rear fenders and the tires seem undersized for the size of the truck. So I looked at the WC53, the 3/4 ton Carryall. It seemed to have a more rugged stature, I preferred the rounded rear fenders and the wheels/tires looked better proportioned to the rig. So my search was finally narrowed to the one year and model. I had learned that the problem parts for these trucks were the rear seats, which were generally discarded, the tailgate, which was usually damaged or rusted out, if present at all.
