Jeff I'm the same way with my WB 3264. only 81 built over a 2 year period. Didn't expect to ever see one, and when I found out about this one I just wanted to get a picture of it, and be able to say I'd actually seen a 32. Never thought it would follow me home  .

My 1942 722 has the Floating Ride seat on pivoting arms with a coil spring supporting under it. It seems this was a feature for the late 30s to early 1940s. Postwar White WB series had a solid box supporting the seat, such as the first two brochures that Shifty posted. Interesting evolution, the arms must not have worked out compared to a box with cushions. The solid box design was adjustable front to back, maybe that's what the arm support designs were not made later.

Thanks Shifty. Bill White also emailed this to me. Too bad it does not cover the later trucks, but now I know how many WB28T's were built. I was also surprised to see there were only 325 WB2864's built. Even though my tandem rears are not original I am not likely to see many more like it. I only know of a few other WB28 tandems.

Try this Jeff. Truth is it may have been posted on Just Old Trucks at one time.  I wish I had an integral sleeper available to compare with a Jumbo, but I suspect they are the same only a shorter version. Two obvious things are the cabs are wider than a coupe cab at about the same place above the running boards. And there is a panel below the back window on both that a coupe cab doesn't have.

Does an integral sleeper count as a jumbo? There are two Super Power Whites in this pic (from the B. Keidan collection on Harvard U archives), both owned at the time by Kubbutz Afikim in Israel.

I'd love to see that list. 1948 works for me. Shifty, is that list on the CWTG page ?

Thanks Shifty, That is the list I have also. It would be nice to have them up to 1960. Take care, Bill

Bill I do have a production list of each model, but it only goes up to 1948
