Loaded up truck
One thing I just love about my 68 is that I can just keep loading it up and it just smiles at me and says keep it coming. The previous owner of my house had bushes in the front of the house in that area next to the sidewalk. Well the bushes died and I had to pull them out. I used the truck of course.
But now its time to dig down 4 inches so concrete can be layed. This is just one of the two areas that needs to be done. My point of the post is that the truck is about 2/3rd loaded and Im guessing with 800-1000 pounds and it only dropped about a inch and a half ![]() Pic of the area that I am just about done digging out. ![]() drivers side of the truck ![]() pass side ![]() and the payload ![]() ![]() I threw the spare tire up there for the heck of it. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Loaded up truck
I'm 100% sure, that the first person to come up with the "TRUCK" idea had that same thing in mind.
Right on, I love seeing these trucks used as trucks! Have fun pouring the concrete ![]() |

Re: Loaded up truck
I wont be pouring it. I learned my lesson last time. Me and concrete do not do good together. My neighbor has a buddy that works in the concrete business. So I asked him to call his buddy and get a "friend" price. He just did some work at my neighbors house and it looks good to me.

Re: Loaded up truck
One thing those side pics reminded me of was that I need to get working on the truck again. Need to get the body work done.
