Dang! I’d like to have it! Its design is far ahead of its time. Compare with the car behind it. Must’ve been one of the first vehicles with a curved windshield.
I’ve no idea of its purpose.
Serious about crackers.

I don't know but could it be a fuel delivery truck? The reason I'm thinking that is the Texaco worker on the left sure looks like he's either placing in or taking a hose out of the neck of an in-ground fuel tank.???

The photo in the 2nd link of your post looks identical to the photo in my OP, except it’s B&W. Likely the photo in my post was colorized.
Look to the right of hte pumps in your picture at the car in the background. That portion of your pic is the original B&W image that wasn't colorized. Note, spend enough time in a darkroom making B&W prints and the shade and gradation becomes something you recognize in less than a second. My hunch that the film used was Kodak XX, a predecessor to Tri-X.
I've stopped counting.

That logo "T" looks like Tesla. Maybe Texaco could sue.
