Did you already show this one? It was at the bottom of my picture pile. At some point I started putting ns at the end of the code and taking it ff once shown, but there are those pics I already had, haven't shown, and who knows!! Enjoy, once or twice!

I do know it, a friend owns it about 20 minutes from me.
It's being made into a hay truck n trailer.

Posted a pic a page or 2 back.

Good stuff from FB

**special-K** · 09-26-2017, 09:37 AM

I'd say. Great company livery on that Crackerbox. That's a unique visor. Looks like a pull down shade!

Here's one from the Tri-State Show last weekend

Sure is nice seeing that Bowtie again on trucks like those.

KQQL IT · 09-29-2017, 01:53 PM

Awesome.
I want one similar.
Split manifold 6-71 and a 5x4 behind it.
Sing that sweet song to me.

**special-K** · 10-01-2017, 10:03 AM

Love to have it!

I guess the black Bison photos are all the same one. That thing is super clean like new only nicer. The owner had a dealership

KQQL IT · 10-04-2017, 12:57 AM

More goodness

**special-K** · 10-04-2017, 07:27 AM

Some proud fleet trucks as well as a proud independent. That grocery hauler is one fancy Crackerbox

Which is the one I wish I knew the history on.
As they are bulk cement haulers now in Victorville Ca

KQQL IT · 10-07-2017, 12:05 PM

Crazy stacks on it.

**special-K** · 10-07-2017, 07:36 PM

Check out those splayed pipes

Searching through yahoo images for trucks...
I really like the 10 wheeler.

I spotted this one Thursday.

KQQL IT · 10-08-2017, 12:27 PM

More crooked stacks, what the hay?

Very nice. Looks like a '67. I think you need to check into it a bit further!

Those Crackerboxes remind me of Praying Mantis or grasshopper face. I guess those are the antennae

**special-K** · 10-12-2017, 06:48 AM

I love the Chevy/GMC tandem dumps.

Hard workin' Chevy

Weee bit overloaded? But seeing a truck working hard is a good thing to see. Our grandparents had no problems pushing the limits with everything.

That's a cool picture, but I always believed that it was "photoshopped".

Freshly cut wood is unbelievably heavy.

Also, check out the Front Left Wheel. I believe I see only 5 Lugs on there.

If I'm correct, it was pretty rare for GM, in my opinion.
