Looks like a C&C, with custom equipment.

Good looking ride, not sure if it's worth 7k

Re: Not mine but thought I'd share

Reminds me of the first bucket truck I ever used as a fresh apprentice electrician. It was a 1966 C60 with the Allison automatic that had a ‘Retarder’ pedal where the clutch would normally be. Was a transmission brake that was pretty handy slowing down that big heavy truck on a hill.

It didn’t have outriggers and I managed to put it on its side once while doing something really stupid. Was a wild ride down (long before anyone used safety harnesses). Was able to tip it back up using the boom and drive it away. Never did tell the boss.

Thanks for bringing back the memories
Tom

I look at these parked trucks and that's all I think, what stories that must have��

Re: Not mine but thought I'd share

Where I used to work, the company bought a '65 GMC and had a 100 foot lift installed on it. Crazy. At one point I interviewed for a position on that project. Took one look at that, and said, "NOPE!". That truck had something like 5k miles on it when it was sold, I think about '05. There was finally a "regular" bucket lift that could reach that height.
