Oldest MV seen on GL?

I was browsing GL auctions within reasonable driving distance and ran across a 1947 truck (looks much newer, so I am not sure, but build date does look like 47), the description even said had batteries, starts and runs, which started me thinking, what is the oldest intact MV you have seen on GL (not counting rusted out frames, etc.)? For trucks this one holds the record that I have seen, but I did see some trailers from the mid 1920's listed last year, those were in rough shape though as you could see lots of daylight through the wood floors, etc.

That truck is most likely a 1970.

The inspector info has 47 stamped at the end. Most likely, the GL rep mistakenly assumed that was the year.
