Workin`the ol`trucks today
My neighbor knocked on my door this morning needing some help.He "wheels`n`deals"in old GM trucks and needed to move things around his place.The ground isn`t frozen right now so things can get messy.He had his`72 wrecker stuck,nosed into a marshy area.A K/5 sans motor needed moved up to the shop.Same thing with a`48 1t C&C.Any how,I get over there with my`72 GMC K/2500,back up ,facing up hill to drag the Blazer up first.Lock-in the hubs,put`er in 4-lo,and the rear(posi)just spins,front`s not engaging(truck`s empty,too).Unhook the chain,she ain`t movin`.We go up the road and get the`72 Chevy K/20(the CustomDeluxe).I get the wrecker up out of the swamp,hook to the front,pull him to higher ground.Then the Blazer,which was about to get well aquainted with my GMC.Pulled the GMC`s tail around to get it running along the base of the hill and it got out on it`s own with some light pedal action.Then back down for the`48.This is what I call fun with neighbors.Sorry no pics.
