What truck is this? More photos

...close Lang, especially the engine, but for all intents it has quite a set back front axle with very rugged looking hubs/rims and possibly a cowl fuel tank?

I revise my previous guess of early 30's REO. Mudguards are different (no pattern pressed in them). Maybe late 20's, but can't find anything exactly matching.
I have a suspicion those headlights are off something else, early 20's Buick?
ASW.

Gday Peter , I think asw is right a Reo of about 1930-31 and obviously one of the heavy end of their listing for that year and I rekon she would have been king of the road in her day and I would say very worth saving. Rob

Lang's Utube motor looks right, did Reos make their own engines?
How about Brockway, only one I have seen had similar headlights, not they are unique to any make. Found one photo on Brockway site, had seven spoke wheels, this one eight. Tyres look post war, so was used after that.
It has a vacuum tank so fuel tank would be lower.
That air strainer could have been the bowl of a kerosene lamp.

Still looking and thinking about this

Loosley.

I am beginning to think this truck has received some major mods in it's life. The wheels look like they started out as hollow cast solid rubber which have been converted to pneumatic (common in the day). The Timkin worm axle and radius rod arrangement is similar to Brockway (and many other 'assembled' trucks of the early to mid 20's). The 2nd gear lever suggests a 9 speed Lipe Brown box which in the case of Brockway was on 5 and 7 ton models. For that era a 4 cylinder magneto motor would be expected so the Reo coil ignition motor may be a later fitting. The cab/cowl is a later fitting. Tyre inflator pumps were fitted mid 20's and could have been standard when solids were an option?
Definately worth saving and restoring to current spec.

The single most (unusual) identifying feature of the chassis is the dumb iron and bumper attachment which looks original. Out of the main stream brands GMC and Pierce Arrow might be contenders.
Where is Swish with his magic book of old timers?

Dun look @ me Mammoth
U n Loosley haz dun good

me guess n th@ the beast in Q:? haz been molested in its earl eye days
Take a boo peep of how the headlight R mounted off the front bumper

cya

...the initials CWC were the markings for the casting foundry of Campbell, Wyant and Canon of Michigan USA...who were also eventually swallowed up by General Motors Corporation....

This will excite Swishy

Probably not but looks damn close. As an aside we all know VOLVO means "I roll" in Latin but interestingly the 1927 symbol is the biological indicator of "male" - the circle with the slanted arrow. Maybe real men drive Volvos?
