Re: GM Semis
The D860 was actually built up until 1962. The new-for-1960 DB-7000 came only with the 6V-71 so customers wanting the in-line 6-71 in a short conventional had to buy the older D860. In 1963 the DBI-7000 finally replaced the D860.

Found this one on Facebook. She's one of the last GMC Astros built with a date of August 17th, 1987 they stopped production in September of 87. This one is equipped with an 8V92TA and a 13 speed with just under 600,000 miles on it.

Re: GM Semis
Looks like a Pacific Motor Trucking (Southern Pacific) rig.

Re: GM Semis
Great pictures. Especially like the last one. Chevy 80 or 90's. Wish they had Cab Lights, can't tell what year they are, but 1970 or newer anyway.

Re: GM Semis
Looks like at least 3 identical trucks, probably a fleet order for P.I.E. or McLean if they were red. Budd wheels too. Is that a girl driving the first one? Cool if it was!

Re: GM Semis
I think oil companies were the only buyers of GMC's with the 702 V-12!

Re: GM Semis
I bet you're right! That first picture shows almost all GMs. I think that truck found its way into the Chinese underground
