Re: GM Semis

Beautiful truck.

Looks like it is a 6500 Model which will have the 478 V-6.

This truck is either a '62 or '63.

As some will remember I used to drive a '62 6500.

Would love to know what kind of trans it has.

Some of these trucks had 8-Speed Road Rangers.

Mine was a 5-Speed, 2-Speed.

I used to read the Owners Manual during coffee breaks, lol.

Re: GM Semis

What does the text under the picture say? It's too small for me to read.

Great picture. I wonder what first this was, trucks over pickup size? Notice the trucks didn't come with clearance lamps

Re: GM Semis

Nice truck loads of Classics. In the upper picture with the 56's, there is everything from a 150 Model to a Bel-Air, including a very rare '56 4-Dr HT 210 Model.

The trucks are cool too, lol.

Re: GM Semis

Nice looking heavy truck.

Pretty different to see only 6 Lugs holding on the Rear Duals.

Not really sure, but I know a lot of Medium Duty trucks had 5-10's.

5 Lugs on the Front and 10 Lugs on the Rears.

Always wanted to make the front 10 lug
