The Daf 1949 A-1500 Series trucks were replaced by A-1600 truck. It received a new designed cabin in 1959 and a new range of engines. The four-part windshield with a central split was only used in 1959. For the 1960 model cabin the central split disappeared.
The first series had a three horizontal strip front grille, in 1964 reduced to only two strips. Around 1964 the small ventilation openings under the A-pillar were replaced by two small ventilation grilles alongside the cooling grille.
Bodywork of this former fire engine was done by coachwork Kronenburg, Hedel, Holland.

I caught the late afternoon sun on this bell tower on my way downtown. A pretty dramatic example of how light changes the way colors appear.
