      Yes, it is a 1922 Big Six service truck for Chester Weaver the dealer in San Francisco. Very common in that era to use passenger car chassis and modify the bodies for service calls, wreckers etc. Not a standard body.

        Different. Like the solid wheels.

          Van Ness Avenue and Bush Street in San Francisco is now and has been for many years the showroom of Ellis Brooks Chevrolet. I believe it is the same building that was once Weaver Studebaker.

          Find local businesses, view maps and get driving directions in Google Maps.


          Check out the street level view - the sign still says "OK Used Cars"

            Could this be another one of their service vehicles?
