Damn nice!

C10 - C90 Bill · 07-07-2013, 12:45 PM

Nice is right.

Notice the old style Directional Light on the fender. Back in the old days these were often called "Arrow Lights".

He told me he has just got a flat cab cannon ball.
He also has a super nice '66 352 Pete as well.

That's slick!

C10 - C90 Bill · 07-23-2013, 05:37 PM

I believe that Cracker Box came from my home town.

Looks like it is a '66.

Great pics, All hail the General!!!, Man those are beautiful!.

**special-K** · 07-24-2013, 07:21 AM

That General w/dual breathers (big ones) is quite a set-up. I wonder if the red Astro is the one I took pictures of at Macungie.

KQQL IT · 07-24-2013, 09:44 AM

Sure looks the same. Although I believe it's a Titan.

that truck wouldve been about 6 feet longer nowadays
would make a great base for a hotrod though
i might take out the middle axle and stretch the sleeperpart all the way to the rear of the chassis and make it intoo a camper

KQQL IT · 08-05-2013, 01:58 AM

Insured coming out of Fremont Ca
The C50 in the bottom of a 96" trailer is wild

alabama mike · 08-05-2013, 08:34 AM

is it just me, or did they not put sleepers on any of the older semi's. I've seen quite a few cracker boxes with sleepers, but very few early to mid 60's conventionals with sleepers.

watahyahknow · 08-05-2013, 09:28 AM

i dont think they had regulated drive and rest times back then and people prolly where glad they had a job too , they prolly just propped a pillow against the doorframe put some cardboard across to cover the hole between the seats and keep the gearstick from poking them and slept that way or slept next to their load in the back
motels where prolly cheaper back in those days too
