Re: GM Semis

The above picture pretty much explains why I don't go to those shows. I've actually never been. Seen some in parking lots on show which was cool, but that's about it.

Re: GM Semis

My first experience with destruction was at Demolition Derbys in the late 60's. When I was a kid, I'd watch them on TV and thought they were cool, but when I was 16, I actually went to one at a local track. I had a '62 Impala at the time and what was in the Derby, but a '62 Impala. Some of the parts on the Derby car was better than mine and I had plans to go and ask the guy after the race if he wanted to sell some parts off of his destroyed car. All through the race I keep saying "Oh No"!! "Watch out for my parts"!! Well, before the race was over, what I was hoping for got destroyed. From then on, I always had a different out look on those type of events.

Even a few years ago, I made a deal on a '70 Impala parts car. The guy wanted the engine and trans and I was to get the rest. When I called the guy back, he had some kind of goofy story about what happened to the car. Coincidently the Monster Trucks were in town, just down the road from where the car was at. I believe I know what happened to the car...

Well, that would have been a good load for a Tandem Axel C-90.

Great picture.

Re: GM Semis

Thanks. That s me standing by the tire at about age 4. Wonder why I drive trucks today? The tanker was my grandpa's. He hauled water to a small housing development in the mountains of norther AZ before they got "city" water. It had a V-6, people said you could hear it climb the mountains 10 miles away.
