Interesting, they aren't real common, but they are out there if you look around in the States. The best examples come from the West, where the dry desert air has kept them from rusting to pieces. The ones on the East Coast are usually rusted out messes. I've been looking for one for the last three years. Mine came out of an Ohio barn and hadn't been used much since the seventies, if I'm to judge from the red shag carpeting that was glued to the ceiling and the cab walls. It's running, but rough right now. I think the timing is off.
