I was able to get the year and the description off of another website, otherwise no one else had any info on this device.
When I saw it, I was most attracted to that Shnoz, on the front. It reminded me of a Dr. Suess invention. I can't imagine this device was all that effective, and it was quite slow, about 4mph. The guy had a flamboyant looking vest on. Due to the duller than usual coloring I decided to go for a Wizard of Oz green color, to make him stand out better.

Wow! I happened to see the colorized version of this first, and both truck and man are so vibrant and alive that I was certain they had been digitally imposed on to the background. Such a wonderful piece! Love the little girls and their dollies, too... actually, you made some great choices for the colors on all of your colorized photos, they seem to bring the past to life.
