kinda cool truck i saw today

[Down south truckin]

i love trucks with a purpose to me that is what the beauty of a truck really is here is a coca-cola truck that i saw today while running the roads i know it's rough but check it out

[WTB3]

that looks pretty sweet... looks like the front clip has been replaced...i wonder what the original paint scheme looks like on the front

[Down south truckin]

here is another gold mine that i found today! i did'nt have time to stop but next time im over there i'll stop by and say hello! the funny part is that I've driven by these hundreds of times and never seen them until today enjoy Mike
p.s. the green+ white one is a longhorn

[rambler]

too bad its not the orginal front clip, did it say how much they were asking for it?

What's the story behind the Coke paint schemes? Were they company vehicles? Local distributor vehicles? Prizes?

[byrdman]

Used to be a short-fleet coke truck that ran around South west Washington too.

[special-K]

Company vehicles:Sales/delivery.

[byrdman]

Here's another, not a shorty though.

I remember a Mountain Dew pickup a LLLLLLong time ago,,,,, see if I can find a pic.

[msgross]

I'm getting thirsty...

Those rims look like Daytons, early bling-bling Might fetch some change on Ebay once cleaned up...

[nplocoman]

Are those new coke or old coke?

[1LoC10]

Those arent Daytons.... center cap looks like old school McLeans

[special-K]

They only had one Coke back then and everyone was happy,just like we`re still happy with these trucks.

[jorgensensc]

If you can get your hands on a good outer grill for a good price for my 72 I would surely appreciate it!!

I believe I saw the 69/70 posted by byrdman over the Memorial weekend. Grandson had a soccer game near Polsbo, WA. This was sitting in a field some distance from the road. Looked like an 8foot step in fair condition. Too far off the road to tell about condition or rust but the entire Coke swish was visible on the drivers side. If I remember I saw this several years ago in the same area.
