heres my truck with some branches in the back.

DirtyLarry · 10-15-2007, 10:06 PM

Here is my ’72 beater truck. We built a new house a few years ago and this old girl has come in real handy with hauling the landscaping materials. I actually bought it for $300 at an estate sale back in 2002.

n2billets truck "Lucy" at work...

eric67m · 10-15-2007, 11:06 PM

Eric67m where did you get those wheels that are on that silver truck i have hunted for years for a set of them and the ones i find in scrap yard are too beat up and the ones i find laying in yards going to waste they don't wanna sell.[/QUOTE]

My wheels are us indy mags. They came with my truck for $650 and are about the only solid piece of metal on the truck

. Actually only the sheet metal items are rusted out. At first I was indifferent with them but they are growing on me. Brad was trying to convince me to polish them out but I kind of like them satin and like the low maintance part of them.

67CHIP72 · 10-15-2007, 11:38 PM

special-K,

I had to laugh when I saw your Highlander's rack system. Here is a pic of mine with the same C-clamp mounting system. My grandfather made these racks 20 years ago and my Dad and I have been using them on various trucks over the years. Unfortunately the pic was taken after the load was off for my Dad.

**oldiron** · 10-16-2007, 12:12 AM

Looks to be a string of them in that first pic! Those are cool pics, I love seeing the old timey shots.

BTW, great company you work for! One of my best performing stocks is OKS, Oneok Partners L.P.!

Psycho71 · 10-16-2007, 11:27 PM

Here's mine with a load headed to the farm a few weeks back. It was more than I shoulda tried to haul, but she didn't let me down.

Hey Burner, is that an original PA truck? It's looks to be in pretty good shape if it is.....

Beast388 · 10-17-2007, 08:28 PM

Hauling the '77 K20 that donated her axles for the 'Burb.

Texasdeere · 11-04-2007, 10:31 PM

Here are some of mine. The load kinda matches the truck, "Rusty"

big_al_71 · 11-03-2008, 01:33 PM

Well here is mine with a full load of parts on its way to the body shop....

*MonteSS454* · 11-03-2008, 01:37 PM

My truck hates pulling a trailer, but I had 4 desks that weighed a few hundred a piece plus some other heavy junk on there.

**Palf70Step** · 11-03-2008, 01:49 PM

It's been on before, but mine working before disassembly. Hauling away the yard trimmings.

69GMCLonghorn · 11-03-2008, 06:14 PM

I have a '69 1 ton that I've only loaded once. My buddy was building a retaining wall. We figure we had about 3300 lbs in the bed. I was half throttle at 65 up a long hill and never had a problem. And, it handled like an old Cadillac! I almost didn't want to unload it!
