Good point, just like I did! I hadn't noticed that!

Is this cool or what! And check out the bed, what the heck is that about? Factory option, dealer option, what is that about?

Aftermarket dump box?

Re: Our Trucks Doing What They Did - Vintage Photo Thread
 
That is what I am thinking, just funny that it would be in the showroom though. I would think that would be something the customer would do after buying the truck. And the dealer wouldn't because it would narrow the customer base so much on that one truck.

I feel like I've seen a similar bed to the one in W Hare's showroom but I can't find a picture.

The S&H Greenstamps logo on the Nickey Chevrolet truck makes me smile. I had to help my mother sort and count piles of green stamps whenever I couldn't find a way to keep myself entertained.

I really like seeing the camper tops. They're built like little covered wagons. I wish I could find a photo of a group of them parked in a circle...

Most of these I've found while image searching old trucks on the web and on the HAMB forum. If I run across a good one I think this place might appreciate I'll save it and try to remember to post it in this thread.

Great pics but I particularly like this one. I worked at a Pure Oil station in the fifties that was situated in a "V" shaped intersection like this and this reminded me of it. While I worked there I drove a new TF 3100 and a new 55 Bel Air and lots of other cars that I wish I had now.

Thanks, Brian. I really like the Mann Chevrolet wrecker. And the tandem axle dump was a neat piece. They didn't have the "pass through" front drive axle like today's rigs. The two rear drive axles each had their own driveshaft which came off a transfer case behind the transmission.

Spotted this while watching Alex Xydias Presents: The Hot Rod Story on Amazon the other night...
Very cool documentary if anyone hasn't seen it.
