No, it just looks a little different because of the smaller cargo door with the square window, makes it look longer. As for the year, I'm guessing somewhere around 1946, not sure. The motor has sat for 40 years without being turned over. I loaded it up on the trailer and took these pictures; these are also the first pictures in 40 years. My son took it back up north and hasn't really done too much to it yet.

Once again, I see the cargo doors with the square windows that they must have used for the military machines.

It looks like there is an XL large gas tank back behind the rad. Think the rad door will close over it ??
the old trucker:
I know this is nothing to do with bombers, but I thought everyone would like to see Grfishmaker in person !!! ha ha ha
Grfishmaker did you know that you will always be remembered here on the island ?? It's like having your likeness etched in stone. Every time I go to Corner Brook, on the way back home I know you are always watching over me.
