Interesting 1970 JM7500

Take a look at this one (no connection to seller):

http://www.truckpaper.com/listingsde...x?OHID=2634109

Looks like an old Roadway tractor that someone mounted a 50's era self-powered mixer on.

Re: Interesting 1970 JM7500

I think that is the toughest duty I've seen put on a V6 GMC. That looks like black , not navy blue like Roadway. Probably humped concrete all it's life...especially if miles are accurate. Truck doesn't look bad for Michigan

That truck has been around for sale for a while, but it is good to see it again. Looks like a pretty decent truck. The Trans is mis-labeled as a 10-Speed though. It is actually a 5-Speed Trans, 2-Speed Rear. The Engine is most likely a 478 V-6. Mileage is pretty low.

Nice body style. That type of use has lots of hours on motor not shown by speedometer. Sure heavy duty

True, but if you look closely at that mixer, it has it's own engine. Not a P.T.O./hydraulic pump drive.

It is. Probably a Continental or Chrysler Industrial.
