Re: Put 'em to work pics !!!

When we were picking up the 66 in fresno, people were amazed that we'd fly from ohio to take a truck home. They don't realize that they're just not worth saving when you find them out here as work trucks. To them, the 60-66's are just old work trucks for broke guys, kind of like the beater 80's box bodies are to us in the great lakes states. When we were driving around town, we saw literally almost 10 of them as work trucks (60-66) in about a 5 block radius of where we got ours. Muffler shops, paint shops, parts stores, a ton of them! There was a 59ish CAMEO fleetside bed one, a million different colors, it was holding 55 gallon drums of paint, and it had the pumper hooked up inside the bed, and the guys were on a car dealership roof painting with the truck as the paint holder/pumper. It looked like it had been doing that job 50 years, couldn't even tell what the base color might have been. It's just crazy to me, being from ohio, to see so many of these, so clean, just being work trucks.
