Still yet ANOTHER load of new Chevy trucks being delivered by a GMC "crackerbox" tractor ( probably has the 230HP V6 Detroit Diesel )

Yenko Chevrolet in 1968.

Since we are looking at Car Haulers, here's a few -

You'll notice these two haulers are owned by the "FJ Boutell Company" - significant to me since I had not one but two uncles who drove for Boutell. In fact, one of my uncles is the gentleman that loaned Mr Boutell the money to start his company.

Ever hear an urban legend about a truck driver that ripped the top off a Buick showcar via a freeway overpass; the car being saved and subsequently turned into a convertible? That would be my Uncle Joe. Fortunately, his relationship with Mr Boutell (and their earlier financial transaction) probably saved his job that day.

I posted these pics over in the payload thread but I guess they qualify as vintage as well. This is my grandfather's 1970 C20 bringing in a load of hay during the winter of 1976.

My grandfather and this truck are the reason I'm a Chevy man today and why I bought my truck a little over a year ago. He was a great man, and I have many wonderful memories of going fishing in this truck and flying down the interstate at 60 mph with about 6 of my cousins in the back fighting over who got to sit on the wheel tubs.

This truck worked hard as a Minnesota farm truck its whole life and rotted away to nothing years ago, but I think of my grandfather every time I get in to my little C10.

These pictures were 30 years ago. I guess that's vintage:
