My grandfather had a 53 3600 truck that he used as a working truck until about 1992/1993. He hauled scrap steel to the salvage yard. I haven’t been able to find a pic in the family photo albums. I guess having the memory is better than any old picture.

here are a few from my stash

Some more. Yes, i realize there are illustrations, but I think they fit the theme.

That is so cool. Shows what the trucks did and how much people enjoyed having them as a tool. The AD trucks have a big place in building what we have today.

The suburban pic brings back memories. Drove one from Ca to New York when i had to go there to enlist in the USAF. Myself and two other drove and lived out of it for several weeks on the long trip across the US . Poor thing had developed a rod knock after a cruise on Hollywood Blvd in early 1969. (the oil breather fell off and ran low on oil. 45 MPH was max speed before the knock scared the H out of us. I left it at my cousins place in Seneca Falls NY and understand it wound up as a farm feed bin somewhere near by. It had a surfboard on the roof and a black and white striped rear bumper. Doubt it survived but if seen or remembered drop me a line.
