Corbitt trucks

I dont have a copy of the Jon Bill book. This is the best I could find, Tad Burness spotter.
It sure was a beautiful truck, I am surpised none survived. Commercial trucks were almost always scrapped if they could not work. I am sure the wreckers were drooling to get those Auburn body panels. Maybe one will turn up somewhere.

page 99 of Jon Bill's book, Auburn Automobiles 1900-1936 photo archive.

I saw this paragraph online and was wondering if anyone had a photo of one with Auburn sheetmetal.

In 1934 when the Auburn Automobile Company folded, Mr. Corbitt bought up all the Auburn sheet metal parts and used Auburn fenders, hoods, and grills on the 11,000 lb./13,000 lb. GVW Corbitts for 2 or 3 Years. They were an extremely handsome truck. None of these are known to have survived. Every major fleet in NC and SC bought the pre- 1940 Corbitt tractor.
