Who uses theirs? got picts?

If I ever catch it parked on the street again, I'm going to get a picture. There is a guy with a 64ish Chevy truck in the neighboring town that uses it to haul wood, and I swear this truck is so incredibly beat down, there's not a single re-usable part on it anymore, it looks like it's been rolled over several times, but it apparently still runs and is still being used.

I know that's not exactly what you were looking for, but if you saw this thing you'd be impressed.

 

Turboroadster... we need a full shot of that one! nice looking truck!!!

 

mines not pretty but shes useful, and rides smooth with the engine in the back lol

 

Doing what it was meant to do....
Hauling the 53 bed remnants...


600 sq feet of flooring....$2500 in there...more than I paid for the truck.

Hauling wood and trim for my home addition.

 

I had to move my coupe body so....
actually, i've hauled a lot of stuff with this since i got it done this spring. Trucks are the perfect toy/function vehicle.

 

We had a pretty good load on already, but figured it could handle the milling machine on the same trip. Another 800/1000 pounds. I worry about tires more than anything else. truck is 66 k-series camper special

 

great thread!

 

that tailgate lettering is pimp .

I like to see trucks used and not abused although the dude helping me load my crap today didnt really give a shit about protecting the upper wings of my bed. I was like, dude, please slide them in straight, see...its easy, and he was a bumbling and fumbling the whole time!

 

my kid's 59 pickup is sitting in the barn with the bed full of crap to go to the dump, maybe I'll get my butt in gear and go tomorrow, and get you some glamour shots.

I'm working on my 59 again after a too long hiatus...it's hauled a lot of engines, lumber, etc over the years. here it's helping build garage #2

 

thanks

 

Does this count? We HAD 6 trees in it when we left the tree farm but didn't think to get the photo until we were a block from the house. Only took the photo because the Hallmark ornament last year was a '60 F100 with a Christmas Tree in the back, happened to be the same time of year I bought the truck...

 

yer' driving old tin, it counts

 

I'd use it if I had one!

 

oh! ME!!! Pic Me pic me!!!

 

just something so cool about that.

 

My Oldsmobile is on the road every day and I use it for everything, Iv put lumber on the racks but they are made for surfboards.

 

What you don't see here are the bags of thick, heavy dried out cork bags at the bottom.

 

Pickups are for picking up.

 

Agreed !

Holy shit thats awesome! Consider yourself picked! I want to see more pictures of that hauling beast!

 

Took my 60 surfing yesterday. Plus I haul hay in it for the horses. Plan on taking the 37 to do the same.

 

I have others here are a few
it is a truck so i use it

why have it unless you're gonna use/drive it!? I'll Never understand the Trailer Queens!

 

I have posted this one before, but here is the Shitty Old Truck doing exactly what I built her to do. This trip was a 12 hour shot to Tennessee to pick up my 34 body with out so much as a hiccup.



See ya, -Abone.

 

My 31 Model A 4 banger hauling the motor for my 51 Mercury build!!!

And a few of my DAILY driven 64 Galaxie!!

 

I can't wait to get a hitch on my AD truck so I can haul my 69 Scotty camper with it.

 

roofracks come in handy

 

used the old f1 to pull out some concrete stairs...

that was fun..

 

sorry my trucks are not on the road

 

Let me tell you my old truck was driven everyday and used to haul just about anything I needed to easly. I have the motor out right now, but my wagon hauls a bunch of stupid junk and keeps it dry to boot. Anybody use or keep they're old bed toolbox on the back. Not those crappy diamond plated boxes either. I'm talkin the white ones that are heavy and real. I'm keeping mine. Old pick it ups all the freakin way. Cars okay but trucks are the game.....
