A great example of nice heavy Chevy (post #727).

With those twin stacks most likely an 8V Detroit.

That exact rig was my dream rig, perfect....just what I wanted.



I just loved riding/driving and thought trucking would do it for me.

Yep. Me too!
I did manage to get my CDL and occasionally drive a dump truck locally.

Wow, that is a neat little dumper. Pretty rare I'd assume, COE Autocar, 4wd?, Holy shoot!

Here's one that's been floating around our state for a while. This is the second time I've seen it on CL. Someone drug it to a truck show here in October too. Used to have a dump body on it, not sure what came of it.

This one has suicide doors, and the fenders are shaped at the edges.

Yeah, look at those differences. I see the suicide door would help with entry. I know many COEs would come on lighter/heavier chassis/suspension. with a low entry version available

Wasn't where I wanted to be, but at least some eye candy waiting for Peterbilt in SLC to fix 600

The sleeper cab is kind of unusual for a Mack L model. The truck looks very restorable.

That Chevy C/60 has the '67 type inside door handle. Looks like mother nature took a bite out of the door opening in the top

68panelman 12-02-2016 11:04 PM

Re: Trucks Are Beautiful
 
Yeah the Mack is very restorable, it was at a trailer dealership, maybe one of their original puller trucks?. Cab does seem strange,ugly and cool all at once.
That C-60 has a nice hydraulic bed with a wheel lift, couldn't get close enough to see an engine, assuming was a 366, the roof was removed at some point, guessing for the marker pods, this was in June, and snakes were on the move, pulled five ticks from my beltline later that evening cause of the tall grass:whine:
