Looks like one of those 'point & go' trucks, just point it and go anywhere you want.

yeah, until you need to crest a hill. breakover angle SUCKS.

71Blazer · 01-27-2005, 07:13 PM

Yeah it would be a teeter-totter real quick but with the right skid plates and enough momentum anything's possible.

Besides with all the extra seating you'd have lots of friends to push

Can't wait to get the stepside bed on my GMC.

if you buy a truck like that you don't worry about its breakover angle; you worry about the inline six having enough power to tow a float in a town parade. gotta love them old power wagons, though.

Is that factory? Sweet Old Power Wagon tho...

LONGHAIR · 01-30-2005, 06:11 PM

It would still have drive line problems w/o Rockwell top-loaders....
