Good evening all,
I'm wondering....is the SLSF yellow flat car seen below, carrying a PlayArt (or what looks like a Model Power) American LaFrance tower fire truck, a Gilbert? Now, I'm pretty sure that the balsa wood "holder" for the fire truck is custom, but the flatcar looks pretty old. I don't see any specific name on it....and judging by the Gilbert's that other members have, this kinda looks like one. :)
Thank you for considering.

* That's a Varney Flatcar with the heavyweight frame. I don't see many of them anymore.
