Re: Random pictures that you did not take.
My brother sent me this yesterday. Parked his truck underneath for scale. Pretty.

Re: Random pictures that you did not take.
Looooongfooooot, ey? Must have needed more bed for something specific, or one man's vision of a cool truck idea executed. For a truck guy that makes more sense than a little bed with a sedan cab. I saw one in the mid-70s that was done extremely well. It was a mid-70s Chevy the color that was similar but richer than Medium Olive Poly with chrome wagon wheels, 6 of them. The bed was stretched to 12' and had a single wheel tandem rear. The wheel opening body work was done nicely. It looked factory. A professionally done job. Never seen another like it. It would have been perfect for a drywall or siding contractor

Re: Random pictures that you did not take.
Long c30 would be my guess and the guy didn’t want to cut the frame . So stretch the bed .

Re: Random pictures that you did not take.
Looks like it could be the long C30 WB. Pretty goofy. Might look better and definitely would tow better without adding to the rear like that.

Longerhorn would have been a good name for it.

Re: Random pictures that you did not take.
I really enjoyed that. Lot's of free enterprise going on back then. I couldn't help but wonder what's with the space case in the Ford straddling both lanes? ROAD HOG!

Re: Random pictures that you did not take.
That must be it. That would explain why no horn honking or fist waving was going on, because they saw the camera car. I was disappointed they cut that first clip just as that cool late-30s Chevy was coming better into sight. Might have been an early mild custom. Cool stuff to watch! Lots of Chevys. Great film quality

Re: Random pictures that you did not take.
I don't think I saw any vehicles newer than 49/50. A bit earlier than the title

Re: Random pictures that you did not take.
That 4wd is sitting mighty low! Are they trying to haul it or store it off the ground, I wonder. Poor truck.
Reminds me of an old place I was helping an old HS friend renovate. He had gathered a crew of flunkies for the general labor, such as gutting and clearing the plaster debris away. I told him he needed a dumpster but what do I know? They show up with a '78 F150 and backed it to the front porch so the debris from upstairs could slide down the tin porch roof into the truck. First of all, OUCH!, from the dropping of heavy debris one story. Didn't manage to break the back window, but down at the truck I was looking at the rear bumper on the ground. Gave me a good chuckle. Made more work for themselves a bit. Somehow this was a better idea than a dumpster

Re: Random pictures that you did not take.
Reminds me of my BiL's father who needed grain to feed his dairy cows. 2 tons of grain in the bed of his 3/4T truck. It was sitting on the bump stops, and he stopped by the shop to get a tarp to keep the grain from blowing and spilling all over the road. I bet he drove it 5 mph all the way to his farm. smh

Got wood? Reminds me of one time I went down to the rock crusher for $2.00 a load for 3/4 minus rock and the front end loader guy loaded me all the way up and it ran over the sides and tailgate.. This was my 65 Chevy short /wide bed 1/2 ton and I drove it slow up a long hill ( 3 miles)to home and made it with out splitting my rims ... .. I have no idea what that load of rock weighed ,, any one know by my deminsions of the bed I stated ?
