Do you have an idea if this truck was run by a Michelin agent, a transporter under contract with Michelin, or possibly Michelin themselves?? Thanks.

Due to my admiration for old drawbar drivers and my fixation with not ‘nosing in’ when reversing the drag, something else occurred to me about that photo. Does anyone think that there are 2 positions for connecting an A-frame hitch and, if so, could it be that they sometimes offset to the left hand hitch in order to see down one side of the trailer? Never heard of such a thing before but it would answer one of my questions.

For what it’s worth Froggy, perhaps a Michelin’s own motor, is it a ‘de-luxe’ version of the cab having as it does 2 windscreen wipers.
