I seriously doubt that this is the Gem Air truck. The Gem Air was a JT Cantrell bodied Power Wagon. If you look closely, the rear of this truck has a whole different shape. Jt Cantrell trucks had a flat rearend that almost looked like they were shaved flat by someone after they were built (kind of like an AMC Gremlin). Campbell bodied trucks had the nicely rounded rear and were a bit longer behind the rear fenders. I can't confirm if this is in fact a Campbell, as advertised, but it looks like the one that Joe has pictured that says, "Woodie advertised at Valentine's long time ago", only with a winch freshly added. The Gem Air also had a one-piece tailgate hinged at the bottom. This one has swinging bottom doors and does not have the radio and knobs in the center of the dash that the Gem Air had.
Of course, someone could have stripped all of the original body off and started over....
