Guess I'll play ,my 72 day she came home.

**special-K** · 02-18-2012, 09:43 AM

Oh yeah! I forgot about your truck. I like that thing.

**Dave** · 02-18-2012, 03:19 PM

Love those pics, what a great collection. Back in the day, some of the 1/2 and 3/4 4WD trucks owned by various fire departments were referred to as the "brush truck" or "BT 1", meaning brush fire application.

This was on Craigslist a while back.

1972 Chevy C-30 2,561 original miles. This is what the ad said,

This this truck is in amazing condition w/ only 2,561 miles since new! This truck still has the original paint, and tires. The truck is powered by a 250 straight 6, 4 speed top loader transmission, and 456:1 rearend gear ratio. It also has front power disc brakes. This truck runs and drives beautifully. If you have any further questions about the truck feel free to ask, and I will return an answer the same day. $15,000

**special-K** · 02-18-2012, 10:42 PM

that's a nice flatbed. It doesn't look like a lot of fixtures were mounted to the cab.

*Achevytruck* · 02-18-2012, 10:51 PM

**special-K** · 03-01-2012, 07:56 AM
