Found some cool truck literature in the basement

We had a little bit of water in the basement, so while I was down there yesterday I went through some of my boxes to make sure everything was ok (...it was).

Among all of my vintage literature I found some truck stuff you all might like:


























I'll probably scan and post the whole Flint Assembly booklet; it's about 10 or 12 pages and is pretty neat.

Re: Found some cool truck literature in the basement

Not sure if you can see it in the scan, but on the big foldout picture of the red '81 you can see the wheel weights on the LF wheel - they go 1/4 of the way around the rim....

(lol)

I see it Keith! Thanks for sharing those brochures and literature. I remember some of those adds from the 80's.

Thanks for sharing with us, Keith. These would be great on Jeff's site. His site is the ultimate resource for everything about our old trucks.

What I wouldn't give for a tour of your basement

Agree. I especially like the ones that have the "Powertrain chart" published; helps with those "no axle code on my SPID/what rear axle do I have?" questions.

What we really need to find is an old "Trailering Guide"....
