They had tractor trucks that look like a stretched out M7. Buda engines were used in boats and in trucks by Peterbuilt and Kenworth. There was a mobile pumping unit for firefighting. Pics of all of them in Wendels book.

My Dad referred to the old 50's Chevy sixes as 'Chalmers casting engines', never considered if he was correct. Anybody else have a clue??
