It looks as though this one dates from 1964, but that cab must have been styled in the 30’s. Does anyone know how long they used it?

From what I understand this cab was designed by Alexis De Sachknoffsky. It dates back to 1936. It was used into the early 60s when the “Driver Comfort Cab” became available as a deluxe option and later completely replaced the older small cab. The newer cab is basically the same cab found in the AMT Western Star, Autocar and Road Boss kits. This cab went on into the 80s with minor changes along the way. Again, this is my understanding and if anyone has better info feel free to share.
