Default 1916 VIM

Have VIM will travel (if I ever get it fully restored) 1916 Vim
delivery truck model F. Have spent many hours searching the net with little
or no return. Got a few pictures from the AACA Library in Hershey but thats
about it. Anyone out there ever heard of this thing? The one I have is
complete, minus all the wood which I have 75% completed based on the
pictures and old irons that came with the truck. Lookin good (have pictures
if anyone interested). Gordon
