Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
Here's a couple of pics of a 61 GMC I had back in the mid 80's. I was in the Air Force stationed in Jacksonville, Arkansas and picked the truck up locally. Drove it daily, even made a trip to Rantoul, Illinois in Jan '87. While in Illinois I had the fun of replacing the front wheel bearings (ball type) in the front driveway of a high school friend, in the snow nonetheless.
![]() ![]() If memory serves me, I think all together, parts and grease cost right at $100.00 back then. I remember reading on this board that the parts are about that amount per side now. ![]() Like a fool, that I was back then, I sold the truck when I found a '72 Monte Carlo that I just couldn't live without. Then I sold that car when I was being sent overseas... Also, here's a pic of my dad back in the late 60's with his work truck... Thanks "LostMy65" for the heads up on this thread... ![]()

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
Great pics guys! While the commercial-type photos are cool, I love seeing the old personal photos. Nothing like real memories you have of an old truck.
Saw this one on Facebook the other day:

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
Great photos, too bad the original photo wasn't taken in color also. Looks heavy duty with those 16" lock ring wheels. A 60's 3/4 ton with original wheels is not a common site today.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
This one amazes me. That must have been a massive wrecker as the car hanging on the back appears to be a Cadillac weighing nearly 5,000 pounds:
