Well it’s my truck doing what I bought it for back in 1975. With the big block Olds it towed the heck out of that boat.:metal:

john: I understand the tow thing. I towed a 19' Sanger flat bottom v drive with my '49 with a 327 & 4 spd. People couldn't believe I could pull Altimont pass at 70+

I blew up the Olds in 1979 and replace it with a 327 Turbo 400. That’s the engine that I still have in it, just replaced the transmission. Towed that 1960 Raysoncraft flat bottom just fine. Wow you got a good deal on your truck in 1973, mine was $400 in 1975, prices were going up!

This is my Dads stake bed truck I remember riding around with him as a kid. He sold it before I could drive, but if he hadn’t I’d probably would have used that tow with.:metal:

I think the driver may be a bit too small to reach the pedals

I'm pretty sure that's the ladder I loaned to Hugh. Never did get that back.

:lol:

I love the photo.

I know this is SUPPOSED to be "vintage" photos only....but hey, since it's my thread I figure I can violate my own idea once in awhile!;)

Found this survivor still working it's ass off as an ordinary daily driven truck at Lowe's today. Up close you can see it was originally dark green. Lots of surface dings with rust on them but all in all, no rust on the headlight or cab brows. Cab corners are the only places showing cancer evidence but not terribly.
Interior is complete, dash still uncut. Would make a great starter for one of us if it were for sale. Never saw the driver.

Anyway, thought you guys would like seeing it.
