The gold one is awesome.

It's a fancy truck as well as heavy. Doesn't have the big back window, though. I don't think I see big block hood vents, either. But I like them all!

Several years ago I posted pictures of my heavy 60 in road tractor config, and pictures of a blueish green one that I thought was like mine....I finally stopped and talked to the owner and it turns out it is a GMC 5500 with factory V config Diesel in it.....it is not a Detroit ... Painted Ford blue. Might be a toroflow? IDK I have never seen one .. .interesting truck . I got some pictures . Just need to get them uploaded from my phone and I will share them.

You can upload them from your phone.
That's how I do everything here.

Best I can do right now. The green with white top c60 near the begining of the album goes with the final 3 photos.(which are really bad).. but it is an interesting truck for sure https://www.flickr.com/gp/40438990@N07/Et055W

A little too much stuff in the way for me to tell, but I do know that they put Toro-Flows in some of those trucks.

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!
 
That's a Toro-Flow, no question. They look like GMC V-6's, but both intake and exhaust manifolds are on the outboard side of he heads.

Beautiful example of a Heavy Medium.

I just wish they put 6V-53's in those trucks back then.

Or maybe even 4-71's ??

special-K 10-08-2017 05:01 AM

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!
 
Yeah, a 4-71 would fit. It would be neat to stretch one to fit a 6-71...or 12V!!

Neat tow truck

Nice '62 Wrecker.

Nice Heavy Front Axle too.

GW says 11,000. That has to be for just the truck itself.

Could have a GVW of about 25,00 to 30,000.

Saw this the other day, glad someone decided to make one:

From what I understand, there will be many versions besides this one with a custom pickup bed.

Nice one! Custom Cab and it has the accessory grille guard with stock bumper.

11k, hmmm...the minimum weight for that class. Maybe just registered low as it could for cheap back when you could get away with a thing or two. Maybe that state considered a hoisted vehicle as combined weight. That is very light.

Hopefully. I got over the "Hey look, I made an oversized useless pickup" thing :lol:. They are cool, but something useful is cooler and now it's just monkey see/monkey do more of the same.

Drove this the other day, '75 C60 with a 366, 5-speed and 2-speed rear (stuck in low). I had a blast hauling about 300 bushels of corn into the Co-Op!
