Don't know if this has been brought up before, but here is an interesting official GM video of 1960 GM tilt cabs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FR3IUNmHhM

Wow, that one truck is super short. It's the length of the front tire.

I believe you are referring to the "Cracker Box". The one shown is a Day Cab. They also made Sleeper Cabs and they had more of a regular look to them.

Cool video, I wonder what engine is in that cracker box. Some type of Detroit?

Most Cracker Boxes had 6-71 Detroits and 10-Speed Fuller Road Ranger Transmissions.
