I have a silver truck 1969 GMC. It even says Poly Silver on the SPID. I like it alot, but oddly enough I am very tired of seeing silver paint on today's new trucks. It was unusual in 1969, but boring today.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

I would bet that used to be olive green. It was notorious for fading to silver. I owned this truck for a short time, believe it or not that’s original olive paint...

Re: Trucks in the Wild

I spied a couple of ones out and about in town.
The first one is out of year but nice truck with a nice dog riding shotgun just off the Banfield by Lloyd Center.
Second one was down in Gladstone.
And the third one was somewhere I was at the same time and it sure looked good.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

Another overworked Ochre truck serving as someone's primary residence. Seen down at the Delta park bottle/can return building.
See previous posting #352 for the other overworked Ochre.

This is to HO455. He used a Chevy bed because if he used a Ford he'd never get anything done. Always be fixing them.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

I saw this one on a trip from Buffalo to Pittsburgh end of July last year. It was on I-79 South out of Erie, PA. Sorry for all the bugs on my windshield.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

I saw this one last June in Haines, Alaska while my wife and I were on a cruise. She said I took more pictures of the truck then I did our vacation (Not True!). Although I did take a fair amount of pictures of it.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

One day in Napa on a trip to visit Chevyland. Lesson: don’t throw rocks at Chevyland or you might hit a 67-72 pickup.
