Must be right about 1976.

I found a GM mobile home toter

Re: GM Semis
 

Still see those in use around here once in a while ,always thought they were cool.

Re: GM Semis
 

I have the exact truck local to me. Would love to check it out, but owner is totally unapproachable.

Re: GM Semis
 

Awesome

Re: GM Semis
 

That's a tough sucker!

Re: GM Semis
 

Yep, especially if its a C 80 with 409.

Re: GM Semis
 

Not just good, EXCELLENT! The photos in post 1689 ( '62-'66 heavies ) are exactly my cup of tea. Love to see more of the restoration process of that red GMC V6 tandem dump. Thanks again for all your great contributions.

Re: GM Semis
 

Thanks too modern social media makes it easy.
And love truck pics, kept me interested in trucks after my pop passed away in 2007 and until 2009 or so I wanted out of them til I realized I wasn't the only one.

Re: GM Semis
 

Realizing you're not the only one is the doorway to becoming a total fanatic! That has happened to me with a few things. After all the "What do you see in that?" reactions it makes you wonder if people think it's strange. Then you find out about clubs, shows, and now websites, etc and you realize there are a whole lot of strange people out there! :lol:

I remember everybody thinking I was crazy for buying an old pickup truck cab for $500. I mean car guys and all. Rust free original paint '72 from El Cajon, CA. I knew exactly what I was doing. I'd tell people "This guy stripped a truck in the bone dry desert, brought it clear across the country, and set it down in PA not much more than an hour from my house for me to walk up and buy"

I'd like to pick up something like this:

Talley trucking Madera ca
And an awesome tow truck

Re: GM Semis
 

That tow truck is an interesting example of an early Chevy.

Either a '66 or '67 Model.

Also note that it is either a Chevy 80 or 90, with a Butterfly Hood yet.

Re: GM Semis
 

The butterfly hood jumped out at me too.

Re: GM Semis
 

Neat pair in Petaluma

Re: GM Semis
 

More facebook grabs

Re: GM Semis
 

Cool Russian hardware!

Re: GM Semis
 

Is that one of them there Fiords?

I want that red mixer! Some nice trucks here!

Re: GM Semis
 

This ol' Jimmy has been sitting a long time, I've been told. Needs to be saved!

Re: GM Semis
 

Cool old truck.

I wonder what kind of power under the hood?

Holy kamoly! That Fleet Carrier Corp picture is the best! But every single truckshown is awesome. That toad face hauling a locomotive is GMC perfection. I've seen the white and red one a lot at shows. Clean as a whistle.

Re: GM Semis
 

:jdp: I would love to steal this whole arrangement.

Re: GM Semis
 

Some more great pictures here.

I especially like the factory shot of the 2nd one down on #1721.

Looks like a '66 5000 with a Heavy Front Axle and a Toro-Flow Diesel.

Re: GM Semis
 

One off my favorite subjects.
