Re: GM Semis
It seems this company had ll their trucks customized that way. Not sure the nature of their business,but maybe moving or other that required a crew. I doubt they are sleepers cuz those could be bought and installed easier and cheaper,I'm sure.

Re: GM Semis
Those have grown on me. At the opposite end of that Smokey & the Bandit truck,there's an Astro I pass by on a farm that just sits. One day I want to go ask about it. It's the same Dark (Woodland) Green color as my '92,a single cab single axle. It's as tall as it is long! The longer the truck the more I like it,but something short takes up less space for something that sets around most of the time and really all I'd need (need?). I could find a short lowboy or even a moving trailer would be cool,to haul trucks with. Or how about converting to a camper?
Here's a super sweet grain body semi from a show last fall I just stumbled across:

Re: GM Semis
Just about a guarantee it's Detroit powered with the stack like that on there. Most likely a West Coast truck with the 10-Lug Budds it has. No 5th Wheel, but I see evidence of Air Brakes. Would make a mean heavy Dump Truck.

Re: GM Semis
OK, I saw this truck at the ATHS show in Brooks Oregon last year, notice the axle hub covers are in the horizontil position with the GMC logo. I don't know how they are fastened on but all six covers were turned the same way. That is paying attention to detail. This is a beautiful truck, if you ever get the chance to go to the Brooks show do so.

Re: GM Semis
I think those are different tires than when I saw it, he must jack up every tractor and trailer wheel and reset them before the show, I'll dig up my pics of this truck, I took lots. Thats a great show in Brooks, If you go to The Great Oregon Steamup show on the 2nd weekend then you can layover till the next weekend which is the ATHS show, once in your lifetime do this.
