Been a few years
I just figured I'd post a picture of one of my old junkers. Nothing special. Pick it apart all you want. She doesn't care. I love her. Let me know what you think. Enjoy!!

Re: Been a few years
Let's see pictures of her running, towing, lights flashing. Inside cab, too. Is that a 1969 or a 1970? Or something else?

Re: Been a few years
I love it. It's a rugged work truck. The mis-matched colors make it look really tough. Post more pics.

Re: Been a few years
She's a 70. Yes all the lights work and everything. I've had her almost 10yrs now I'll figure out how to post videos of her running and everything. The few upgrades I've done are a newish motor custom stacks exhaust. Disc brakes up front and put the batteries under the deck and added an isolater. I would have never thought she would get compliments from you guys and gals. I use her as a daily driver and tug stuff when I have too. Thanks for the nice words. I appreciate it have a swell day everyone

Re: Been a few years
The easiest way for videos is upload them to youtube and post a link to your video here in this thread. If you change to have http instead of https at the beginning of the link address it will show a neat embedded video in your reply.

Re: Been a few years
Sorry for not saying anything. But nice pics, I love the motorhome pic. Did you flat tow it? I'm still trying to figure where you're at. Nice looking area.

Re: Been a few years
That's a cool old war horse. I recommend that you don't get caught up in how many views or comments you get. I'll bet you still were getting plenty of views, just everybody had commented on your first set of pictures. There's no telling what threads people look at and why, but you got a lot of nice comments at the very beginning. Seems like that would make it worth posting more pictures.

Re: Been a few years
Ok, if it'll make you feel better I post a comment. Nice truck, ok? You said "pick it apart I don't care" in the beginning and no one did, so I'll start. What's with the...? Do you realize how rare your truck is? I sure don't see enough of these old wreckers. I dig the stacks
