Prototype History:
White Motor Company ended car production after World War I and began producing trucks. The company soon sold 10 percent of all trucks made in the US. The WC series of trucks went into production in 1949 to replace the earlier WB-series trucks. The WC series was the companies main heavy-hauler until they were in turn replaced by the 3000-series Cab-Over-Engine models.
