Re: GM Semis
It sure is a beauty. Those trucks are cool and unusual having the earlier (fat) cab and later front end. That's the same cab as a Cannonball.
Great hay wagon picture!

Re: GM Semis
Another "B" series along the newer ? 90" cab? If you like 60-66's you'll like the B series, if you like 67-72's you probably like the 90" cab.

Re: GM Semis
Wow, look what I found yesterday, believe me, I don't need more trucks but I'm going after this one, gota have it cause I'm a front wheel drive kind of guy. I don't know anything about this series sheet metal, can someone tell me what year to what year they ran this cab and clip and what model designations they were. Sorry no close ups yet, was busy hauling cat 955 home.

Re: GM Semis

Re: GM Semis
Right, '60 to '63 GMC Series B.
Believe they were made the same as the others, '60 to '66. Probably has one of the larger V-6 Gas Engines. Bill

Re: GM Semis
Don't know on the grill, is kind of strange, thought maybe it was after market modification. May take a short drive sunday, 80 miles one way and see if its for sale, oh please let it be for sale, would be a nice light load for the 288. Let ya know if its good news, posting pics of yesterdays trip on my 69 Pete thread in a few minutes.

Re: GM Semis
Cool looking fleet.
In that picture you can see what the Grille is supposed to look like. I would say that the Grille on the truck that Peanutbutter is looking at got damaged in an "artistic" way. Bill
