Re: Trucks Are Beautiful
Thanks Tim, now I visualize that cab on a Dodge power giant. Thinking later 58-6? Ford cab might of been used there. Wow, I forget they used that Dodge cab a long time

Now when I say "Trucks are beautiful" I'm not just talking about shiny dolled up rigs. I'm talking Trucks. They are beautiful, no matter how ragged, beat, or worn out.
Just look at the added style this A100 cab gained being a heavy truck :cool: |

Re: Trucks Are Beautiful
I don't have the picture on my computer, but I think it's the one used for the album in the centerfold. It shows looking at it from the front and down the driver side (could be my picture is cropped) showing the loaded trailer behind. Quite a beautiful sight. I'm just realizing this truck would have been my introduction to cool west coast big rigs and especially to trucks/trailer combos and those being hay haulers. I never went to California till '76 and I had this album before that. If there were any big rig magazines back then I never saw one. Overdrive existed back that far, I think

Re: Trucks Are Beautiful
Thanks for the cool pics KQQl IT. My Dad used to "boom" load hay trucks in the late 60's. He and my mom were living in Woodland CA but he would travel all over the area to load for Toby's Trucking. He said he would work at night during the summer months because of the heat.

Re: Trucks Are Beautiful
Yeah, thanks for those! Is that RJ holding the album? That was a fine rig. Is it lng gone or did he hang on to it, I wonder
|
Re: Trucks Are Beautiful

Re: Trucks Are Beautiful
I believe it's a Mack.
|
Re: Trucks Are Beautiful
It does kind of look like a Mack ,never seen one like it .
|
Re: Trucks Are Beautiful
That's a big/heavy one. Probably got a Mack V8. Look how wide the hood is. Somebody put quad square headlights in, that throws it off.
