Yeah, looks like a couple of brand new 7500's.

They are either '68's or '69's.

It's big enough that I notice the fuel fill door open on the one. That makes me think someone was stealing gas. Then, I think that would be the hardest one and I wonder if it was the last one. I never would have wondered all that if the picture wasn't so big :lol:

Actually they blow open all the time on #1 spot.
BMWs and Beetles gas door will blow completely off.
Apparently going backwards at 70 mph wasn't engineered.

Back when homes had 550 and up gallon heating oil tanks. My neighbor has an old 1500 gallon, boy does he have sludge problems...

Never considered that on the gas doors. I bought a truck from San Diego that was hauled on a flatbed. In OK they had some crazy wind that tore the bedliner out. They had just installed it before loading. It still had a brand new tailgate liner.

SO, does anyone have a picture under the hood of a 9500 with a 8v-71 ? I would like to see one. Thinking about bidding on one up my way and am curios what it is supposed to look like.

Great pictures! As much as I love a dolled-up privateer rig, I also love seeing the fleet trucks just as they were...get the job done and show the company's colors. Most trucks you see restored, even those, guys can't resist geegaws & doodads. That 66 line-up if a slice of heaven. That last 95500...wow! Look at all the new stuff. and I wonder what truck that is with the Alcoa on the rear.

Here's a picture that moves if you click it
