This 1947 Labatt's streamlined beer delivery tractor-trailer was built by Andrew Willmott from the excellent Sylvan Scale Models resin kit. The prototype tractor-trailer was designed by Alexis de Sakhnoffsky. The streamliners were built by the Smith Brothers Motor Works of Toronto. The coachbuilder used Canadian-built White Motor Company tractors and Canadian-built Fruehauf drop-frame trailers to construct the vehicles. The bodies for the units were hand-built of aluminum sheets pined over the wooden frame of white oak and ash. On display at the 2014 East Coast Meet in W. Springfield, MA.
