You're right on the location. I have mine mounted to the bumper bolts. I wonder why the change? You think the factory did not want to keep punching extra holes?

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

I don't know why the change but bolting on the bumper bolts would definitely be easier and look cleaner. Interesting how they changed stuff over the years.

Here's another one during the eruption. I'll just go ahead and assume that's a 60-66 there far ahead to the left:

Earthquake??

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Sure was - https://www.cbsnews.com/pictures/bay...5-years-later/

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

I was watching the World Series that day...

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

I was riding down Valencia Street on my motorcycle and pulling into the taqueria for a burrito. When I stopped in front of the place this guy came running out yelling Earthquake, Earthquake, and at that moment I felt the ground rolling under my feet and the building swaying back and forth. It was over and I went in and got my burrito. Later on I learned how bad it was.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Photo is definitely not from 1989, photo is from the 1971 San Fernando quake.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Another from San Fernando.
I was probably playing with my Tinker Toys in 1971.

Old Beach Ad, the older photo quality just seems better, even though its not fancy digital quality.

Hey, that's an Idaho truck! :)

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Cool old shot from my old department. We had several of these trucks early in my career....

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Cool memories.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

look how evenly spaced all the vehicles are. such good drivers back then

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Thanks for posting! I see the similarities between the two. I took this photo in '86 when these GMC's went to auction.

Not as old as others here, but still qualifies as a nostalgic:

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

I remember back when you can ride in the back of the truck.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Yep, even without a canopy.
I had a friend who got killed when the driver drove off a levee and the truck flipped over on those in the back.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

jbgroby posted this in a different post so I thought I would put it here. Cool Picture Jb

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Cool picture.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

I tried to find the nostalgia link but had no luck.

I notice that the two trucks don't have the rear bumpers and the guys trying to take one off the car, Bumper thief!

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

It looks like it might fit.

What do you suppose the guy that is standing up is stealing off the pickup?
