Beautiful truck.

Looks like it is a 6500 Model which will have the 478 V-6.

This truck is either a '62 or '63.

As some will remember I used to drive a '62 6500.

Would love to know what kind of trans it has.

Some of these trucks had 8-Speed Road Rangers.

Mine was a 5-Speed, 2-Speed.

I used to read the Owners Manual during coffee breaks, lol.

What does the text under the picture say? It's too small for me to read.

Great picture. I wonder what first this was, trucks over pickup size? Notice the trucks didn't come with clearance lamps

Nice truck loads of Classics. In the upper picture with the 56's, there is everything from a 150 Model to a Bel-Air, including a very rare '56 4-Dr HT 210 Model.

The trucks are cool too, lol.

Nice looking heavy truck.

Pretty different to see only 6 Lugs holding on the Rear Duals.

What's a six lug steer good for 7500 lbs or 10k ?

A friend sent me the pic, he knows my taste in old Jimmys

Not really sure, but I know a lot of Medium Duty trucks had 5-10's.

5 Lugs on the Front and 10 Lugs on the Rears.

I drove a '89 C-60 with 19.5's like that.
Always wanted to make the front 10 lug
