The truck on the right is a Fageol, Peterman who built the first Peterbilts bought Fageol
in 1938. The first Peterbilt trucks were built in 1939. Peterman was in the logging
business in Morton, Wa.. Peterbilt's were built originally for the logging industry.
Peterman bought out Fageol for $50,000 dollars.

Is it the one I have seen?
Finding a complete/for sure KW built between 42 to 46 is extremely rare. I only know
of one a 1944 that is for sure built in Yakima. Many say they know where one is but
the chances are it doesn't exist. Plus very few people even knew there were Kenworths
built in Yakima until I and another guy started posting about them.
