Re: GM Semis

Interesting pictures.

I'm sure glad they didn't choose the center picture style.

Re: GM Semis

That was once someone's pride & joy. Great truck! How 'bout those Perlux hoops? Could be stirrups but I'm thinking light guards.

Re: GM Semis

Take a look at this General. I have seen a couple with this grille and the square headlights, and my theory is that this was supposed to be the 1988-89 General. It is not the SBFA General as these trucks only have a different grill and headlights. The rest of the hood appears to be the same as a regular 116" BBC General. I have seen pictures of a silver General show truck with this front end that I believe GMC was displaying at trucking trade shows in 1986-87.

Re: GM Semis

Great era picture of a great truck.

I don't know if this has been shown, but I can't get enough of this truck. How about that for one of your toys?

Re: GM Semis

I'm jealous of you. Those are some neat trucks. I really like the little Crackerbox for some reason. I bet it will be really nice when it's finished.

Re: GM Semis

They should go ahead and paint that cab with all the detail put into the rest. Great stuff in Reno! I wish I could've gone. I am headed to Macungie for the ATCA national show on Thursday. Can't wait. Riding over in the '58 REO. We usually don't go till Friday, this will be much better.
