One thing cool is that with all the weight in the back if he dumped the clutch he might've been able to pull a wheelie!!!!!!!!:lol::lol::lol:

Looks like the GM plant in Fremont. Amazing how few empty parking spaces there are.

Heres a new one I found online. Looks to be a 60-63. Hes using the truck to pull tension on the fence.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 
That's a helluva way to do fencework, lol. We used a fence wire tensioner that (if need be) could be hooked on a point of our tractor of no available posts were nearby. LostMy65, lets all play a game called Find The Of Era Trucks, lol.

He's pulling the heck out of it too, or he has lead in the bed. Kinda ridin low in back.

I'd do the same thing I think. I went into a cattle supply store a few years ago asking about putting a fence up. The old blacksmith lookin guy told me how and what it'd cost, then he thought a minute, looked at my 140 lb frame and spaghetti arms, and said, "No offense son, but I hope youre gonna have some help with this. You really gotta put some heft on the fence to get it tight and Im not sure you can pull it off."

I ended up not putting up a fence :lol:. This was before I had Cecilia though.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 
I'll be putting some fencing up.....maybe I'll give that a shot!.....Hopefully I don't pull to hard!:lol:

Dont forget to put a bale of hay or something in front of the window to protect against snap-backs. Or lift the hood if you're pulling from the front :)

I think the '61 was a brochure pic or something. Saw it on Facebook. The wrecker was recently on a '60-66 Facebook group as well, & the guy said it's his dad in the pic (circa early 60's).

1963 chevy truck w/camper on the Denali Highway in 1963.

Hard to tell from the picture, but looks like a compartment behind the passenger side door maybe?

This a great shot of some early grill screens. I know Chevy did offer them for many car applications and I believe the trucks also. These look correct w/the headlight notches. And check out the 10' antennea

Another cool pic...Not sure how old it is, but the truck is definitely getting a good workout

Interesting that even VW used a GMC truck. And how about a load of Yenkos? Those cars get $100,000 + consistently now.

Interesting that cars got shipped with hubcaps in the trunk, while trucks shipped caps in place.

I'm going to need to find a good resolution version of one of those 65 shots on the transporter. I have a 65 Impala convertible to match my 65 C10...

Not a problem! It's almost impossible to search for previously posted pics when these threads get to a certain post count. Slowly but surely this is becoming one of those threads. Some cool, new additions you've added. Love these old pics. :metal:

Thank you. :) Definitely one of my favorites. ;) And so glad I decided to keep the truck looking "stock."

Cool pics! The one of the bus/camper reminded me of this one I saw in a shopper magazine with houses for sale/rent:
