1940 Diamond T Model 306 Dually with New Oak bed
Jim Lundberg was restoring this personally at the time of his passing. He had the body painted Pepsi’s red white and blue colors so the restored truck could parade as a Pepsi truck honoring his older brothers’ founding and operating the Dixie Bottling company, a Pepsi franchise, from the late 1930’s to the 1970’s in St. George, Utah. Beginning at age 13, Jim drove Pepsi delivery trucks for his brothers company during the last years of World War II.
