Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!

It's a fancy truck as well as heavy. Doesn't have the big back window, though. I don't think I see big block hood vents, either. But I like them all!

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!

Several years ago I posted pictures of my heavy 60 in road tractor config, and pictures of a blueish green one that I thought was like mine....I finally stopped and talked to the owner and it turns out it is a GMC 5500 with factory V config Diesel in it.....it is not a Detroit ... Painted Ford blue. Might be a toroflow? IDK I have never seen one .. .interesting truck . I got some pictures . Just need to get them uploaded from my phone and I will share them.

Best I can do right now. The green with white top c60 near the begining of the album goes with the final 3 photos.(which are really bad).. but it is an interesting truck for sure https://www.flickr.com/gp/40438990@N07/Et055W

A little too much stuff in the way for me to tell, but I do know that they put Toro-Flows in some of those trucks.

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!

That's a Toro-Flow, no question. They look like GMC V-6's, but both intake and exhaust manifolds are on the outboard side of he heads.

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!

Beautiful example of a Heavy Medium.

I just wish they put 6V-53's in those trucks back then.

Or maybe even 4-71's ??

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!

Yeah, a 4-71 would fit. It would be neat to stretch one to fit a 6-71...or 12V!!

Re: 67-72 C/K/T-40's-90's!

Nice '62 Wrecker.

Nice Heavy Front Axle too.

GW says 11,000. That has to be for just the truck itself.

Could have a GVW of about 25,00 to 30,000.

Saw this the other day, glad someone decided to make one:

From what I understand, there will be many versions besides this one with a custom pickup bed.

11k, hmmm...the minimum weight for that class. Maybe just registered low as it could for cheap back when you could get away with a thing or two. Maybe that state considered a hoisted vehicle as combined weight. That is very light.

Hopefully. I got over the "Hey look, I made an oversized useless pickup" thing . They are cool, but something useful is cooler and now it's just monkey see/monkey do more of the same.

Drove this the other day, '75 C60 with a 366, 5-speed and 2-speed rear (stuck in low). I had a blast hauling about 300 bushels of corn into the Co-Op!
