Re: Something different thread
Wow. Very cool. Of course I'd like to meet the stoner that built it...
Seriously, I'd love to know more about it. It's built so well that Google Image Search thinks it's a real truck and brings up other pictures of AD trucks. |

Re: Something different thread
You have to wonder how many of those VW vans they killed in the 60's and 70's sticking them on those old buses. Either for more head room or in some cases a sleeping area up there.
That wrecker is just flat sweet.

Re: Something different thread
i googled the top one, it is a 40/41
i've been in the 1952 futureliner that was rebuilt in indiana, it was at a stop on the 2012 power tour. it had to be the most impossible vehicle to drive with your head 13 ft up in the air and in the center cockpit

Re: Something different thread
1940 is the first gen Futureliner, I read they were all refurbished in 1953. PeterPan buslines is selling a rebuilt one and a rusty carcass for $1M.
They remind me of bookmobiles, so Here's some bookmobiles...
