Re: GM Semis

Realizing you're not the only one is the doorway to becoming a total fanatic! That has happened to me with a few things. After all the "What do you see in that?" reactions it makes you wonder if people think it's strange. Then you find out about clubs, shows, and now websites, etc and you realize there are a whole lot of strange people out there!

I remember everybody thinking I was crazy for buying an old pickup truck cab for $500. I mean car guys and all. Rust free original paint '72 from El Cajon, CA. I knew exactly what I was doing. I'd tell people "This guy stripped a truck in the bone dry desert, brought it clear across the country, and set it down in PA not much more than an hour from my house for me to walk up and buy"

I'd like to pick up something like this:

Re: GM Semis

That tow truck is an interesting example of an early Chevy.

Either a '66 or '67 Model.

Also note that it is either a Chevy 80 or 90, with a Butterfly Hood yet.

Re: GM Semis

Holy kamoly! That Fleet Carrier Corp picture is the best! But every single truckshown is awesome. That toad face hauling a locomotive is GMC perfection. I've seen the white and red one a lot at shows. Clean as a whistle.

Re: GM Semis

Some more great pictures here.

I especially like the factory shot of the 2nd one down on #1721.

Looks like a '66 5000 with a Heavy Front Axle and a Toro-Flow Diesel.

Re: GM Semis

Good looking truck.

A '64 or '65 6500 with a 478 V-6 Gas.

Most likely a West Coast truck with the Budd Wheels on there.

Probably has a 5 X 3 or 5 X 4 Trans.

Yes, Fresno is in the California Central Valley.

I used to see a lot of similar 8-10 yd. GMC gas V-6 tandem dumps. A lot of Ford FT-900 Super Duty Ford dumps too.
