When I was a kid living in the little place called Whitstrand outside of Prosser Wa I would see Herrett trucks all the time. I could see them
in the distance with cheap binoculars climbing the Horse Heaven Grade outside Prosser at a snails pace. There trucks were cream colored
with a black stripe. Herrett also had another line called GEM. Alot of their trucks were rebuilt at least two times in their life. At one time
Herrett was the largest refrigerated truck line west of the Mississippi. There office and yard was up the road from Prosser, In Sunnyside Wa.
Note the fuel tank location on this 54 Pete, behind the sleeper. It was pretty common in those days for Pete, Kenworth and some other makes
to mount the fuel tank behind the cab. But I think that was mainly a west coast thing.
