6c Euclid Dump Truck minor variations.

Has anyone found the white sleeve on a model other than with the single piece rear wheels and painted grille?

I will fine tune your question with one more addition Tinman by asking whether anyone has ever found one with anything but the domed front tires WITH LUGNUTS along with your one piece rear wheels. In an earlier Post with Ford30 we were discussing the lug nutted wheels with treads possibly predating the domed without lugs or treads, and the white sleeved Dumps with those more detailed wheels actually being the first off the earliest production run in August of 1963.
The only other white sleeve friction block I have ever found is on my pre-production number 51B Tipper Trailer which was released a full year after the introduction of the 6C Dump in August of 1964. Were there still a few white sleeves left in the pre-production back room a year after the Dump was first released? I believe my gray bodied hand assembled Tipper model used one of those early left over white friction sleeves from the earliest Dump production run.
Antonin had laid out a timeline of this #6 Dump's wheel changes that disagrees with Stannard's, but he and I believe to be correct Joe. The early 11C Taylor Crane being released without lug nuts on it's Domed tires in June of 1964 seems to support the lugged and treaded style front wheel being done a year earlier, and then discontinued to be replaced by the less detailed non-tread domed style. Someone clever can give us a link to that discussion with Antonin, and also the earlier one between Ford and I. If those discussions can be furthered in this Post by your excellent question Joe, it will start out 2014 with some added zing and defy the title of this Post.......LOL.....kwakers

Mike, is she wearing contacts or is that a reflection from a flash?

I agree with this also, as the two white sleeve 6c models I have in my collection are Stannard codes 4 and 6.

I don't think it is any coincidence that I also have white sleeves on only Stannard codes 4 and 6 as you do Christian. ( even a spare of one of them.) This only supports our theory in that the earliest production of white sleeved #6 Dumpers would have had the undamaged 'A' and 'B' Tippers on them and were equipped with the more detailed lug nutted front wheels with treads on them. They correctly should be changed to Code 1 and Code 2 on Nick's Site if we find no other body or front wheel variations with white sleeves existing. The white sleeves MAY have been changed to black before the Tipper 'A' die was damaged with both the 'E', and part of the 'N' wearing out.
I and Ford do also have a black sleeved variation that was covered here that has one domed lug nut and tread wheel, and the other being a plain domed wheel on it's front axle. Mine has a 'B' tipper base that has the 'E' and 'N' undamaged on it. Thanks Once Again Christian and Antonin for your input. kwakers
