Not a bad looking truck. There are a couple of mid 50's with booms like that around here. I'm not sure what they got used for originally but one has a real long boom on it.

Re: 1952 GMC Winch Truck

One of my old big trucks is set up as a boom. I don't like the way it was done and have always felt it would be useless. One like that one might do some real work.
