Re: 1972 Tiltbed for sale (not mine)
Oh,OK. Some areas,mid west I think,call them flatbeds. I call them what they are no matter where I am. A flatbed is a stationary flat bed that you have to load and unload,a tilt bed is a flatbed,loaded the same way,with a hoist that tilts to unload (like a dump truck,but doesn't have a dump body),and a rollback is a flatbed (with side rails) used primarily to transport vehicles that tilts and rolls back onto the ground so it can load and unload itself using a winch. I've seen van bodies with a hoist. That would also be a tilt bed,so I guess I'd have to say it's a tilt box van/van body (dry goods?)...whatever. Trucks sure come in a lot of different ways
