Let's See Your Old Trucks!

[Andydodgegeek]

My most recent purchase. A 1957 Power Wagon. I am really looking forward to getting this thing going. Pretty rare truck.

Anybody ever seen one of these? It's not mine, but I saw it at the lumber yard the other day...

Looks like someone grafted a VW bus on the back. This is the '89 Power Wagon I sold last year.

A '57 ,that is so cool. I wish I had never got rid of mine. Flat six or 315?

This is my 1961 Studebaker 6E-28 1.5 ton with a 13' flatbed dump.

This was my 1973 IH 1500 1.5 ton 4X4 truck, it had a 345 with 5 speed.

This was my 1959 IH B-120 3/4 ton 4x4, it had the 240 CID 6 and 4 speed with a 12,000 PTO driven winch up front.

My 1949 Studebaker 2R17A fire truck that I painted with a foam roller. This had a factory alternator and 2 speed electric wipers and 5, 680 miles when I sold it (to the same fellow who bought the other Studebakers).

My 1946 Studebaker M-16 fire truck with 2349 original miles.

My 1957 Studebaker 3E-40 2 ton flatbed with my 1964 Studebaker Avanti R-2 on the back. You can see the front of a 1949 Studebaker 2R16A I used to own to the left.

My 1948 Studebaker M-16X with a twin cylinder hoist under it.

My 1952 Studebaker 2R-17A with flatbed dump.

My 1964 Studebaker Bock toter, this rig was set up to tow mobile homes and had an expandable wheelbase.In the background from left to right are the'48 M-16X, '49 firetruck, '85 IH flatbed and '61 Studebaker 6E-28.

This was my 1945 Studebaker M-15 with C-9 military cab. Studebaker was authorized to build 4000 civilian units in 1945 at the end of the war and it had the swing out windshield that carried over from the US-6 trucks. It was in sad shape.

Josh, you need to post some pics from today!

Been trying, I can't get pics to upload for some reason.

I couldn't be happier with how this Rough Country 2" lift turned out. Not only does the truck now look perfect for my taste, but it also drives and rides better than it ever has since I've owned it.

This one is for Andy, this was my 1970 Dodge W-200 Power Wagon with a 413 4V and 4 speed. I still have the side racks if anyone can use them.

A few of my rollback earning its keep. That is my former 1963 Studebaker 8E-28 truck on the back, I sold it with 16,258 original miles and all 7 original tires.

Hauling the IH 1500 4x4 home, as you can see the ground was a bit soft.

Taking the '64 Studebaker Daytona convertible to the shipper to be sent to Australia.

Moving my Keystone threshing machine.

Taking a load to the scrapyard with the remains of a 1952 Studebaker 2R10 truck I parted out. Notice the folded boom pole in the front that I killed trying to pick up an oak log.

I can see a four door version of one of these from my house. Very cool truck.

It would be awesome with a 12 valve and an NV5600.

Back in the early 1980's I had a 1972 W-300 with a 9' pickup bed and a 12,000 # PTO winch on it. I sold it in 1982 to a fellow who is active in our tractor show back home and he still has it. He replaced the 318 and 4 speed with a 440 and automatic and put a new cab on it a few years back.

I did find almost a full box of saw files rolling around on the dash of the '70 when I bought it.

I hear you. I have a 74' k5 that's so far down the list I almost forget I own it sometimes. I have a 472 caddy and Dana 70s sitting waiting to go in it.

I put a 500 Caddy in my 75 GMG K25. Use block hugger headers to clear your front axle. Make your own mounts and you will have a minor amount of firewall cutting at the seams. Use a big radiator with dual electric fans and you should be good to go. Trans adapt makes a nice eSy to use adapter plate.
