Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Craigslist about 7 miles from my house. needs a new roof skin and some attention here and there but who cares. Its a clamshell task force carryall not gonna find them too often especially ones that are dirt cheap and run and drive. Everything works too. Its such an awesome cruiser.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

I live in Rochester NY, found my 57 GMC Carryall in Northern Minnesota last summer, a 2400 mile round trip to bring it home, totally worth it for such a rare bird. It also has the clamshell rear gate, that's my preference over the two styles, I'm going to be replacing the tailgate cables shortly.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

I like the clamshell on the suburbans as well they look more proportionate with all the windows. I like the barn doors as well and would take any with them too but think they look better and more proportionate on the panels.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Beautiful! Your 50 looks super clean an fast! I love the sleeper... I was at a light the other day a rich kid in a uber built Raptor came jamming up next to me. I knew he was going to punch it, so of course I did the same. He pulled me off the line, but by the time I hit second I was even an in third I started to pull him. The kid was so pissed he slammed on his brakes and swung down a side road. It never gets old blowing past people in a lowrider
